Release notes, changes and instructions about how to upgrade from the
previous 6.5 are available at

http://docs.nethserver.org/en/v6.6/release_notes.html

A new installation can begin from
- ISO, by erasing any existing data on the hard disk (!)
- network, on a previously installed CentOS 6.6 minimal [1]

Starting from 6.6 release, NethServer installations contact CentOS
mirrors directly to retrieve upstream updates. NethServer specific
packages are still served by pulp.netheserver.org and other NethServer
mirrors.
