As nice as DVD installations seem, my older hardware would not allow it. I was trying to install on an old Athlon T-Bird 650mhz/Soyo board with 128M but neither Fedora Core 3 or 4, nor debian would complete the installation via DVD. I did not download the CD images for core 4 however, I am going to do so today.
I have also ordered a new Syntax 266AD board with a Duron 1.8G processor. That and 512Mbytes of memory should do the trick. What happens is that the DVD versions of Fedora 4 and debian boot properly, then start installing however I soon get a message that the system can't find the CD. As I said, I suspect it's the old hardware. I will report my success or lack thereof later.

As for Fedora on DVD... I'm downloading the Fedora 4 torrent now. Hope I have it eventually :) --- Jamie <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > So, as far as installing from dvds...
