Where can I download Fedora 11?

**spamsickle** · 04-23-2011

Yes, I know -- it's old. I want it because I want to install software which says it works under Fedora 11, but doesn't say it works under Fedora 11 or later. Is there a site for "legacy" ISOs?

**MikeTbob** · 04-23-2011

Hello and Welcome.
Which software are you trying to install? Usually software will work with newer kernel versions, which is the main difference from one release to the next.
If you must have Fedora 11, I would look in ftp sites.

I'm installing CULA 1.3a. The release notes I found at www culatools com/files/docs/R11/release_notes_R11.txt (sorry, not enough posts to post urls) say Fedora 11 is a supported release. I'm installing CULA as a pre-requisite to GPUtools, and previously ran into problems compiling a few dozen modules of that system under Fedora 14. I'm starting again from scratch, and just thought I'd go with the doc all the way down the line this time. It's probably not what's causing my problem, but it also probably couldn't hurt.

Hello and Welcome!

In case you're still looking for it, all Fedora versions can be found on their site.

BTW... what problems did you run into? Dependencies? Performance issues?

**spamsickle** · 04-23-2011

Thank you for that tip. I'm in the process of downloading the ISO DVD for Fedora 11 now because you helped me find it, and I appreciate the help.

I'm not entirely sure what is causing the problem I'm having. It's something that's happening during the GPUtools build. Here's the log from that:

The numerous "Double not supported, demoting to float" messages are due to the graphics card I have installed -- it doesn't support "double", because the "compute capability" is only 1.1. I assume this means it doesn't have the hardware to handle double arithmetic.

After it's executed, there is indeed no "gputools" directory in the /usr/lib64/R/library path, but it's not clear to me from the log why the file it was looking for wasn't there before that directory was deleted. If you can spot it from the log, I'll owe you another debt of gratitude; if not, I still appreciate the tip on where to find Fedora 11. Thanks again.

ETA: Just ran out of space downloading the DVD ISO, so "lack of space" may have been the (invisible to me) problem during the GPUtools install too. I'm going to be putting a new operating system on a new 1.5 TB drive, and I plan to allocate at least 500 GB to the Fedora 11 partition. That should be more than enough...

Thanks for the tip. Seeing that the same problem occurred (and was resolved) on an Ubuntu install reinforces the idea that it's probably not the Fedora version that's the source of the problem. So while I'll burn the Fedora 11 DVD, I think I'll start the re-do with a larger partition and Fedora 14.

I appreciate all the help. A lot of this is pretty new to me, and I'm kind of feeling my way.

Where can I download Fedora 11?
