The BioBrew 3.0 iso is meant to be burnt to a DVD. I published an article on BioBrew in this month's ClusterWorld magazine that referenced BioBrew 3.0 (which was in beta when I wrote the article), so I posted a release without announcing it for folks that read the article. I haven't announced it yet, because I'm working on getting the Opteron release up to the same point, at which point I'll announce them together. That's the plan anyway : ) The main difference in 3.0 is that it is based on RHEL 3.0, and not RH 7.3 like previous versions. The other difference is an increase in the stability of the Infiniband software and drivers. No bioinformatics packages were upgraded, but upgrades of HMMER, ncbi toolkit, and mpiBLAST are planned in the near future. The other feature I will be adding is access to Intel's performance tools and compilers. The tools will be integrated and installed for you, all you will need to do is pay Intel for a license to make them operational. There will be a website for you to do this at.
