Fedora, Red Hat, and RPM are trademarks of Red Hat, Inc. ============================================================================ DIRECTORY ORGANIZATION Fedora Core is delivered on six CD-ROMs (disc 1 through disc 6). Disc 1 can be directly booted into the installation on most modern systems, and contains the following directory structure (where /mnt/cdrom is the mount point of the CD-ROM): /mnt/cdrom |----> Fedora | |----> RPMS -- binary packages | `----> base -- information on this release of Fedora | Core used by the installation process |----> images -- boot disk ISO image |----> isolinux -- files necessary to boot from CD-ROM |----> README -- this file |----> RELEASE-NOTES -- the latest information about this release | of Fedora Core `----> RPM-GPG-KEY -- GPG signature for packages from Red Hat Discs 2 and 3 are similar to disc 1, except that only the Fedora subdirectory is present. The directory layout of discs 4, 5, and 6 are as follows: /mnt/cdrom |----> SRPMS -- source packages `----> RPM-GPG-KEY -- GPG signature for packages from Red Hat If you are setting up an installation tree for NFS, FTP, or HTTP installations, you need to copy the RELEASE-NOTES files and all files from the Fedora directory on discs 1-3. On Linux and Unix systems, the following process will properly configure the /target/directory on your server (repeat for each disc): 1) Insert disc 2) mount /mnt/cdrom 3) cp -a /mnt/cdrom/Fedora /target/directory 4) cp /mnt/cdrom/RELEASE-NOTES* /target/directory 5) umount /mnt/cdrom ============================================================================ INSTALLING Many computers can now automatically boot from CD-ROMs. If you have such a machine (and it is properly configured) you can boot the Fedora Core CD-ROM directly without using any boot diskettes. After booting, the Fedora Core installation program will start, and you will be able to install your system from the CD-ROM. ============================================================================ GETTING HELP For those that have web access, see http://fedora.redhat.com.
