Users looking to run an EL-like linux that pre-dates RedHat’s derivation and meddling will want to look at PCLinuxOS .
Its pedigree is mageia, so Mandrake and Conectiva.
While it’s got a horrifically bad PXE install, and while that means Vagrants and templates are ghetto and thin on the ground, it’s otherwise a very fine OS with a wide compatibility range that RH couldn’t even match with this AppStream bullshit (ohai, /etc/alternatives).
