I purchased a copy of Fedora from the CLUG meeting last Tuesday but it

It'd be interesting to know which version of Fedora did that?
Also what kind of hardware were you installing it onto?
The progress bar appears to be about 98% complete at which point it
made not further progresss so I chose to reboot it, and it then
brought up a GRUB prompt and was not able to boot.
Should I dump Fedora and get ubuntu.com to send me a copy of unbuntu
Linux?
I'd suggest that you wait a week until the final 'Gutsy Gibbon'
release comes out.
It's currently at the release candidate stage. See:-
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyReleaseSchedule
I'm 100% sure somebody will be getting it off the 'Net, and it will be
available from our Linux archive the week after next.
This is what the members of the CLUG advised me on last
Tuesday's meeting.
or should I go back to Red Hat version 9? Although it is about five
years old, at least it managed to install correctly.
imho, you'd be better off sticking with the distribution with which
you are familiar, and install the current version of the Red Hat clone
called CentOS.

Has anybody got CentOS-5 they can share?
I've got Centos 5 in both x86 and x64 versions.
Brat.
