Re: Downloading iso files on a Windows machine

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



get md5 from http://www.fourmilab.ch/md5/ and unzip to a folder on
your xp system .... place the .iso files in the same folder, start the
command line window, go to the md5 folder and run the check in the
following format:

md5 filename1.iso filename2.iso filename3.iso filename4.iso

check the output against the checksums given by fedora

use alcohol120% or NERO to burn the .iso images to CDR's

boot your system with the first FC3 disk and use the GRUB boot manager
option so that you can choose which os to load when you start the
system

it is really very straight forward
