Power Developer DVD

This version is the latest 7.5 version, full of bioinformatics/live science applications for almost any need and it includes developement tools (GCC, C++, etc) and the complete Linux kernel headers (2.6.28.1) required for compilation of applications and third party drivers. This new version also includes PXE booting, allowing dumb terminals to boot BioSLAX off the network from an already booted-up BioSLAX in PXE mode. This eliminates the need for every terminal to have a copy of BioSLAX on it. PXE booting must be an option in the dumb terminal's BIOS for this to work.

Users can also choose to install BioSLAX to the PC as a full Linux system using the provided BioSLAX installer.
