Fedora 9 DVD
Fedora 9 DVD
Fedora 9 is an evolutionary enhancement to a distribution that continues to improve with each release. The Fedora project combines the benefits of Red Hat engineering with the freedom and flexibility of a community-based distribution. Red Hat uses Fedora as a test bed for technologies that might one day appear in the premium, enterprise-grade Red Hat Enterprise Linux. We are proud to bring you Fedora 9 as this month's Linux Pro Magazine DVD.
What's New?
This DVD comes with a re-spin version of Fedora 9 that includes bug fixes, security updates, and other improvements added since the official Fedora release.
New features in Fedora 9 include PackageKit, a single, easy-to-use package manager that supports a variety of package systems, as well as the FreeIPA security management application, and an improved version of the NetworkManger configuration utility.

what's the dvd not recognized as disk 1 with gui install error "fix"
Both give the same error and "test" OK.
When running a gui install, after selecting packages when the progress bar is about 70% a dialog box appears asking for disk 1. I've not found a way to get past this with the gui install.
Text mode install works just fine....

Missing DVD case cover sheet
Shift from Plastic DVD Case to Paper Wrap
Since you went "green" with your last issue the case disappeared.
As a RHEL/CentOS/Fedora user I am particularly interested in storing DVDs covering one of those distros
while I usually don't care too much for the others (e.g. OpenSuSE, Ubuntu, Xandros for me are the usual throw away candidates)
So at least I would expect some DVD cover sheet PDF or similar to print out and wrap my own case with it.
But I cannot find it on your website.
Did it also fell prey to your GreenIT ambitions?
I know that these days DVDs seem hardly justified as almost anyone has flat rate high bandwidth Internet subscription.
Me too, so I could well run an overnight atjob to download the ISO and have it burned on a DVD.
But still this would take 2-3 hrs. and then, lacking a fancy disk printer, the hand scribbled title wouldn't look as pleasing.
