| There are several distributions based on RHEL where all annoying
| work of removing Red Hat trademarked stuff was already done for
| you.  Look for Centos or White Hat Linux on Google (there are
| several more distributions like them).  They are all freely
| distributable, and are basically exactly the same as RHEL
| (including updates) minus Red Hat logos.  And you don't have to
| worry if what you are doing is legal or not.
