I dont think you can get redhat anymore, think they gone bust or something( but who the hell cares? wink.gif )

I think they call it fedora or something now, try searching for that.

Soz, I know this is no big help to you, but as i said, who the hell cares if mandrake, redhat etc goes bust? (Except for neo of course...)

I do... red-hat was so cool, actually there is still red-hat but they decided not to make the standard edition or something... going with the enterprize edition.

If you ever need a linux distrobution, check ftp.is.co.za. They have most of them. That is to say you have the bandwidth to download.

yea, its now called Fedora Core 1(Fedora Core 2 is also out i believe), Redhat merged with some other open source project because they had basically the same goals, so they thought it pointless to waste efforts.

When i tried Red Hat (version 7 and 9), i did not like it much, and found it too unresponsive, and also the default installation doesnt let you recompile your kernel (doesnt have GCC installed). Though I have put Fedora Core 1 on my fathers machine, and i must say it looks quite impressive, with a nice bootscreen (loads up X in the begining and shows the progress bar).

Anyway, as Silverwing said, you can get it from ftp.is.co.za, or ftp.telkomsa.net (they are a red-hat mirror or something).

kthnxbye

I went to this directory /mirror/fedora.redhat.com/linux/core/1/i386/iso and there are 6 files there the three files are yarrow-i386.iso and the other is yarrow-SRPMS what's the difference? should I be dl the i386 files?

srpms are the source rpm's for the apps... if you're not interested in development or compiling the programs yourself, then you dont need those
