Unique image download I think

linux-howto

http://forums.fedoraforum.org – I have a friend same age group (OLD) that has Fedora and I am really interested. The unique I indicated in subject may only be my ineptitude and or comprehension challenges. Be assured I want Fedora on both of my units. The how presents the problem. 1. This notebook I am sending this from is 32 bit but has DVD capability 2. The other unit my desktop has no DVD capability but is AMD 64 My question and I am willing do do ALMOST anything to resolve the concern is how to (the step by step process) to download the image for both units and the torrent mirror. PS; that last is confusing to me I download the seed file which obviously puts me in a position to download a more secure image, but I fail always to find the mirror where the images are located. I thank you in advance as I know I am asking for a great deal. My hope is someone in the community is retired like myself but is more adept in Linux and Fedora then myself. (HowTos)

Seeding Torrents 3 years 26 weeks ago

One of the ways you can help users install Fedora 12 is to first help them get the iso's. Tonight, when I looked for a mirror to download from I realized that the direct download was going to be slow, so I looked at the torrents. It actually took me less time to download from a torrent then it would have if I downloaded directly from a mirror.

Dear Friends,

For this purpose I needed to download iso image of Fedora.

Dear community,

I'm a dinosaur with F14 and I found that there are no updates for it anymore, so I decided to reinstall the system completely.

Could you please tell me what is new now Fedora 16 or Fedora 17?

Because I thought it is Fedora 16 and when I visited a download page, I see only Fedora 17, so should I download it?

MS Core Fonts download? 12 weeks 6 days ago

I'm looking for the MS core fonts. I can't find any good Linux downloads. All I can find are Windows installers; you have to download one for each font, then go through a huge process to get everything extracted. I'm running Puppy Linux.

Fedora-17-x86_64-DVD.iso fault 28 weeks 5 days ago

A bit torrent download and two downloads from the Fedora site directly produced disks which when booted brought up the splash screen, allowed moving to the choice screen, but then rebooted without progressing to the Fedora download and configuration. :(

The Fedora 16 64 bit download worked perfectly with a clean installation, making me suspect there's a problem with the iso.

Where to download Fedora 16 27 weeks 5 days ago

I am having a really hard time finding a place to download Fedora 16 64 bit distribution are there still places that have links up for 16th version instead of 17? A Virtual image for VirtualBox would be good as well.
