End of support for centOS7/8 and centOSStream8 environments
Support for the centOS7/8 and centOSStream8 kadeploy environments is stopped due to the end of upstream support and compatibility issues with recent hardware.
The last version of the centOS7 environments (version 2024071117), centOS8 environments (version 2024071119), centOSStream8 environments (version 2024070316) will remain available on /grid5000. Older versions can still be accessed in the archive directory (see /grid5000/README.unmaintained-envs for more information).
