The Fedora Mystery
I bought a new laptop, paid the MS-Tax (for Windows XP), and I want to install Linux on it. When looking for ISO images of Fedora, I found no Israeli mirror of Fedora ISO's. The most recent mirrored version in that lineage is RedHat 9. So I am downloading Fedora ISOs (slowly) from abroad. Meanwhile, the above observation leads me to asking, in a nervous way, whether there is any brown bag type problem with Fedora or with its level of Hebrew support. --- Omer My opinions, as expressed in this E-mail message, are mine alone.

Re: The Fedora Mystery
Actcom host a mirror of Fedora: ftp://mirror.israel.net/pub/fedora/linux/core/1/i386/os/ or http://mirror.israel.net/pub/fedora/linux/core/1/i386/os/ You can see their list of mirrors at http://mirror.israel.net/ Jason I bought a new laptop, paid the MS-Tax (for Windows XP), and I want to install Linux on it.

Re: The Fedora Mystery
Hi Omer, I had Fedora running for months with nary a problem and hebrew was also an easy fix. Why are there no mirrors? I have no idea but I do think that bittorrent (sp) is the preferred way to download it. I also downloaded the iso's.
