Fedora Core 1 For AMD64 test1 Available

Posted by timothy on from the vroom-vroom dept.

DrFishstik writes "From the Fedora Project Page: "A test release of Fedora Core 1 for AMD64 is now available from Red Hat and at distinguished mirror sites near you, and is also available in the torrent. Like the original x86 architecture release, the AMD64 architecture has three binary ISO images and three source ISO images. This is a single (we hope and intend) test release specifically to check hardware support; the package set is the same versions as an updated Fedora Core 1 for x86 system will have.""

    Only wish installing Gentoo was a bit easier...

    That's just a myth, you anonymous coward. FreeBSD does support AMD64 as a tier 1 platform (their highest level of support), but I don't know about NetBSD. For person who own AMD64 machines these systems are definitely worth a look.

    1. Maybe I don't know Linux well enough... But wait, I do... I still prefer a graphical, easier installation that doesn't take 10 days...
