How do I make a DVD from my Fedora down load?

Postby mraroid » Sun May 02, 2010 2:54 pm

Hi...

I went to UORegon.edu web site (Oregon) and down loaded Fedora -12X-86 64-DVD iso

I have no idea if that is what I want or not. I am installing it on a old laptop that has a Pentium 4 in it. It is a 32 bit machine. I saw x386 stuff, but decided on the 12X-86 one.

Did I do that correctly?

If so, I have it on my desktop. Do I just do a drag and drop to a blank DVD? The computer has XP on it now.

Thanks for the help. Sorry, I am a nob.

No, you want the i386 iso image, which is 32 bits. You downloaded the 64 bit version, which will not work.

you can use many tools in XP to burn an iso image.

Thank you for your help. I am now down loading Fedora-12-1386-DVD.iso
I hope this one is the correct one. I will read your info in buring a DVD of Fedora.

Thanks!
