Basically if you want to learn Red Hat, you can download CentOS for free.

They are virtually the same.

Without paying money, you can only get the SRPMs for RHEL6.

The sources are available at: ftp://ftp.redhat.com/redhat/linux/en...r/en/os/SRPMS/

Hmm this is interesting.
Would be glad if someone put more focus on
Why do they provide SRPMS?

Why not an iso?
How do i get working redhat 6 out of SRPMS?
As per my understanding it will be only Source RPMS and i will have to compile it according to my system (Correct me if i m wrong).

I also did free registration @ redhat site and got to the page where i can able to see the disk images(iso files).
What are they?

Well, if you can get that far, you can download the latest RHEL6 beta!
