Go to http://spins.fedoraunity.org/spins to get the bits!
The Everything Spin includes everything available at the time of the
release of Fedora 9. It is the same, really, it is. Just more. Way,
way more! And the more Fedora, the better!
The i386 as well as x86_64 Fedora 9 Everything Spin is rather large,
yet sized a fashionable 4 DVD's. You can imagine carrying those
around as your complete, instant, bootable and installable mirror of
everything Fedora has to offer -at the moment Fedora 9 was released.
Of course you could just use a USB Harddrive, or even USB thumbdrive
(16GB), but that wouldn't make the Everything Spin any more fun now
would it?
Haven't had a chance to look at this, but is this still based on old
single layer DVD sizing? While not all old DVD burners will burn D/L
DVD, based on a sample size of 12 old burners and players, they all
seem to read D/L just fine.
And Blu-ray won the HD battle, Linux supports using the burners, how
about a real everything on a single media release?
If you had looked at the download link at least, you would have seen CD,
DVD, DVD Dual Layer and Bluray ISO images available for download.
I was completely clear on that, it's not something I need at the moment,
so I was asking based on the text of the original post.
Is this really "everything" or will we have to go to repositories in
free countries for working media players and best encryption?
This is "Everything", as in
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/9/Everything/$arch/os/Packages
Still a useful collection.
