Hi everyone, I have been using Redhat since Redhat 4 and since then It had lost good features which are so useful for example How-to's and etc, ofcurse some of them had been removed because of licensing problem . .The thing which shocked me so much was the the Kernel source . Why is it excluded from the CD images ? And the installer . Why the package selection section has become this poor in FC5 ?

Hello! Remember that Redhat != Fedora. The documentation that was available was written by Redhat employes that were paid to do it. The Fedora documentation is written by volunteers from the community. All the source code for Fedora Core can be downloaded from this location: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/5/source/iso/. Since most users are not interested in it (do not know what to do with it :) ), I think it is a wise decition not to force everyone to download it. With regards to the number of available packages in Redhat N vs Fedora Core, I do not have any numbers to verify what you are saying, but if you are missing something in particular, it is allways possible to request that the program should be packaged for Fedora Extra. -- Best Regards, Trond Danielsen
