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","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pete Zaitcev: Torrenting FC-5 ISOs: I suppose I can uncover the mystery which bothers dwmw2.
