The main reason I&#8217;m torrenting FC-5 ISOs right now is that making my own ISOs from Rawhide RPMs is too much of a hassle. I would need to have all scripts on tap, which copy RPMs, copy comps or whatever it is that Anaconda needs, and, worst of all, generate images\/. And God Forbid I hit a bug in installation. Mr. Jones and Mr. Katz would tell me &#8220;your ISO must be screwed, use a normal one&#8221;, and they would be right.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Pete, I think dwmw2 downloads trees, burns a boot.iso and does NFS installs. Its probably heaps better than downloading them, and making your own ISOs from the tree. It saves a lot of CDs (or CDRWs) and these installs can magically happen pretty unattended. This is my preferred way of installing.<\/p>\n<p>And Jeremy, Peter and Paul are pretty amazing when it comes to anaconda bugs. Very responsive, and always willing to investigate. <\/p>\n<p>Alas, I do torrent ISOs too, because the PPC torrent tends to not receive much traffic, and I&#8217;m doing my bit for the rest&#8230;<\/p>\n<div class=\"sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled\"><div class=\"robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-icon-text sd-sharing\"><h3 class=\"sd-title\">Share this:<\/h3><div class=\"sd-content\"><ul><li class=\"share-email\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-shared=\"\" class=\"share-email sd-button share-icon\" href=\"mailto:?subject=%5BShared%20Post%5D%20Pete%20Zaitcev%3A%20Torrenting%20FC-5%20ISOs&body=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.bytebot.net%2Fblog%2Farchives%2F2006%2F03%2F20%2Fpete-zaitcev-torrenting-fc-5-isos&share=email\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Click to email a link to a friend\" data-email-share-error-title=\"Do you have email set up?\" data-email-share-error-text=\"If you&#039;re having problems sharing via email, you might not have email set up for your browser.
