It wasn't released with CD ISO files, but the *separate* respin project did make some. http://www.warp2search.net/contentteller/news_story/fedora_8_20080204_re_spin.html http://spins.fedoraunity.org/spins Though, I gather it's not a set of CD ISOs that you download, but scripting to create your own from the other downloads. Another option, which might be easier, is to download and burn the smaller rescue disc ISO, download and save the DVD ISO file, boot from the rescue disk and tell it to use the saved DVD ISO file to install from. Make sure that your install doesn't format the drive/partition holding the DVD ISO file. I've done that the last few installs. I pre-partitioned a drive before installing, and put the DVD ISO in one of those partitions, and ignored repartitioning when installing the OS (I just selected the partitions to use, and didn't reformat them). Post installation, I rewrote the fstab file and made the spare partition holding the DVD ISO into my /tmp directory. -- (This computer runs FC7, my others run FC4, FC5 & FC6, all using Gnome in case that's important to the thread.)
