From my point of view you've got 2 options:
  1. Get an official subscription
  2. Move to an non-subscription based distribution. CentOS, for example, is built from the same sources as RHEL, using the same settings. The only difference is that any Red Hat specific payable software isn't available, and you don't have guaranteed support.

Should you go for option 'b', there's a Migration Guide on the CentOS wiki.
That was really helpful .

I was informed that one should have a strong c programming background in order to do a proper compile of GCC. I am of the opinion that having such a background would be helpful but not entirely necessary. What do you think? (1 Reply)

lsb_release

lsb_release(1)						      General Commands Manual						    lsb_release(1)

NAME

       lsb_release - print distribution-specific information

SYNOPSIS

       lsb_release [options]

DESCRIPTION

       The lsb_release command provides certain LSB (Linux Standard Base) and distribution-specific information.

       If no options are given, the -v option is assumed.

OPTIONS

       The  program  follows  the  usual  GNU  command	line  syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`--').  A summary of options are
       included below.

       -v, --version
	      Show the version of the LSB against which your current installation is compliant.  The version is expressed  as  a  colon  separated
	      list of LSB module descriptions.

       -i, --id
	      Display the distributor's ID.

       -d, --description
	      Display a description of the currently installed distribution.

       -r, --release
	      Display the release number of the currently installed distribution.

       -c, --codename
	      Display the code name of the currently installed distribution.

       -a, --all
	      Display all of the above information.

       -s, --short
	      Use the short output format for any information displayed.  This format omits the leading header(s).

       -h, --help
	      Show summary of options.

NOTES

       This  is a reimplementation of the lsb_release command provided by the Free Standards Group.  Any bugs are solely the responsibility of the
       author below.

       Detection of systems using a mix of packages from various distributions or releases is something of a  black  art;  the	current  heuristic
       tends  to  assume  that	the installation is of the earliest distribution which is still being used by apt but that heuristic is subject to
       error.
