Hi all,
This question may have been asked many times but I have just subscribed and need some advice.
Have downloaded the version of Fedora released about a week ago, confirmed the images and burnt them to cd. They do not boot however on startup of my machine.

The only release made last week was Fedora Core 2 Test 2 and some people reported that the isos didnt boot... If you just want to have a stable linux release , download the latest stable fedora release , which is Fedora Core 1 , available at http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/1/i386/iso/ or at any of the mirror sites mentioned in http://fedora.redhat.com/download/mirrors.html .
But , if you want a really cutting edge distro , then fell free to test FC2 Test 2, but we warned that it can destroy your computer or make you loose your sanity ;) If you reallly want to install FC2T2 , grab the boot.img file from the images directory of FC2 Test 1 , burn it , and when it gets to the fedora logo with a text prompt , swap the boot cd with the cd1 of FC2. Then press enter and it will probably begin the install (it's a dirty trick I didnt try , because I've used the DVD image to install).
