They're not, but it's often hard to guess exactly which packages will be on which disk. I'd suggest doing an FTP or HTTP install -- you only have to download fedora/core/3/i386/os/images/boot.iso (4.9M), start the install, and then from within the installer pick what packages you want. > There is no obvious location on the site with support info.

I think the web page doesn't mention support because it wants to emphasize that RH doesn't offer any at all (for a very specific definition of "any at all"). But you're right; this could be more clear. > At this stage there aren't any docs available about how to install/use > Fedora, only docs about how to write docs, am I right? > This was a bit confusing to me.
