<h4>Installing For RHEL and CentOS Users</h4>
<p>
<blockquote>
The lastest stable releases of Cobbler and Koan are included in <A HREF="http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL">Extras Packages For Enterprise Linux</A> and can be installed with yum. Since EPEL's main repository does not update super frequently, using EPEL Testing is recommended so you can get the latest packages. <A HREF="http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/testing/">EPEL Testing</A>. Packages pushed to EPEL testing for cobbler and koan are considered "stable", despite the repository being called "testing". To EL4 users to take advantage of all features of cobbler, they will want to upgrade yum and yum-utils to newer versions, as tools like yumdownloader and reposync are needed by commands such as "cobbler import" and "cobbler reposync".
