Scientific Linux is a Linux distribution that is derived from free sources of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). It has been developed at Fermi lab with major contributions of CERN, ETH Zürich and DESY. It intended main audience are scientists and researchers.

Installation

Although Lazarus and Free Pascal are not included in the standard distribution they can be easily installed from packages provdied by the Lazarus team. This requires only the following few steps:

  • Download current RPM packages for your processor type (32 or 64 bit)
    • fpc for Free Pascal (required for all configurations)
    • fpc-src for Free Pascal sources (required for code completion)
    • lazarus for the Lazarus IDE
  • Install the packages by double clicking.
