I just installed fedora on my Dell dim 2400,

if you have less than 1/2 gig you'll need to use the text install, but Im building a LAMP server, so I didnt want graphical interface anyway....


but the install worked fine. I had tried downloading the ISO but when I used the check media option, the disk kept failing. so.....

I bought the disk from Borders bookstore. there is a magazine wraped in a foil wrapper that said " everything you need to install fedora." -- came with the disk, a wall poster & a simple how-to guide ( only basic install covered)


hope this helps someone
