DIRECTORY ORGANIZATION

 

  Fedora  Core  is  delivered  on multiple CD-ROMs consisting of

  installation CD-ROMs and source code CD-ROMs.

 

  The  first installation CD-ROM can be directly booted into the

  installation on most modern systems, and contains the following

  directory structure (where /mnt/cdrom is the mount point of the

  CD-ROM):

 

 

/mnt/cdrom

  |----> Fedora

  |        |----> RPMS        -- binary packages

  |        `----> base        -- information on this release of Fedora

  |                              Core used by the installation process

  |----> images                -- boot and driver disk images

  |----> isolinux              -- files necessary to boot from CD-ROM

  |----> README                -- this file

  |----> RELEASE-NOTES        -- the latest information about this rel

ease

  |                              of Fedora Core

  `----> RPM-GPG-KEY          -- GPG signature for packages from Red H

at

 

 

 

  The remaining Installation CD-ROMs are similar to Installation

  CD-ROM 1, except that only the Fedora subdirectory is present.

 

  The directory layout of each source code CD-ROM is as follows:

 

/mnt/cdrom

  |----> SRPMS                -- source packages

  `----> RPM-GPG-KEY          -- GPG signature for packages from Red H

at

 

 

 

  If you are setting up an installation tree for NFS, FTP, or HTTP

  installations, you need to copy the RELEASE-NOTES files and all

  files from the Fedora directory on discs 1-3. On Linux and Unix

  systems,  the  following  process  will properly configure the

  /target/directory on your server (repeat for each disc):

    1. Insert disc

    2. mount /mnt/cdrom

    3. cp -a /mnt/cdrom/Fedora /target/directory

    4. cp /mnt/cdrom/RELEASE-NOTES* /target/directory (Do this only for

      disc 1)

    5. umount /mnt/cdrom

 

INSTALLING

 

  Many computers can now automatically boot from CD-ROMs. If you have

  such a machine (and it is properly configured) you can boot the

  Fedora  Core  CD-ROM  directly. After booting, the Fedora Core

  installation program will start, and you will be able to install

  your system from the CD-ROM.

 

  The images/ directory contains the file boot.iso. This file is an

  ISO image that can be used to boot the Fedora Core installation

  program. It is a handy way to start network-based installations

  without having to use multiple diskettes. To use boot.iso, your

  computer must be able to boot from its CD-ROM drive, and its BIOS

  settings must be configured to do so. You must then burn boot.iso

  onto a recordable/rewriteable CD-ROM.

 

  Another  image  file  contained  in  the  images/ directory is

  diskboot.img. This file is designed for use with USB pen drives (or

  other bootable media with a capacity larger than a diskette drive).

  Use the dd command to write the image.

 

Note

 

  The ability to use this image file with a USB pen drive depends on

  the ability of your system's BIOS to boot from a USB device.

just as a note... mirror.ac.uk went through a bit of difficulty in funding recently and Kent Uni was worried about the possiblity of it disappearing (afaik this hasn't been resolved) anyway, around this time mirrorservice.org turned up, mirrorservice was JISC taking action to ensure that the mirror been provided by Kent Uni didn't just vanish with no replacement. The service that mirror.ac.uk provides will die (or has?) and mirrorservice.org will become the permant home for the mirror service. The rates I have achieved on from them have been huge (as you've seen), so needless to say all my downloads are from them :)

 

Anyway, exact same link but from mirrorservice:

My first fedora install, after redhat.. i'm impressed, now it fully supports all the hardware on my laptop, and shutsdown perfectly (used to hang CPU), I must say this distro is bliss.
anyweb! these screenies helped me convince a noob to let me install fedora! yay! ty very much
