Fedora Core 4 Available

Posted by Hemos on from the here-comes-the-flood-again dept.

Limburgher writes "As of a few minutes ago, the torrents listed at duke went live. Nothing on the main site yet, however. The more people get on the torrents, the faster they will be. You all know the drill." Update: 06/13 19:07 GMT by T : Also in Red Hat-related news, halfbyte_hosting writes "CentOS 4.1 is now on the mirrors and ready for download."

  1. Slashdot editors suck a big cock. by Armands+Leimanis · · Score: -1, Troll

    Slashdot is yet again the epitomy of failure. GNAA member popeye submitted a much better version of this story than this 'Limburgher' jew, which was more detailed and was actually true.

    popeye writes "After a slight delay, Fedora Core 4 ("Stentz") is now available for download on the Fedora Project download page and mirrors. There is also the torrent of course. Core 4 contains GNOME 2.10, KDE 3.4, X.org 6.8.2 and Linux 2.6.11. You can thank lawyers for delaying the release."

    Real hard to tell which one to choose, eh? Inaccurate story (the Fedora web site does announce that FC4 is out), but what do you expect from slashdot. Fuck you, cocksucking editors.

      you must be from the south. come back when you learn some manners, lose the racist undertone, and get rid of the southern (eww) accent.

  2. Yet again... by keesh · · Score: -1, Troll

    slashdot irresponsibly posts a link to a release before it's officially available. Have the editors not learned from all the times they've done this and screwed up in the past?

    I don't know . . . I think I still prefer my linux from a non commercial entity that isn't just throwing me bits and pieces to test as a guinea-pig for their corporate product.

    I haven't used RedHat since 1997, but after the whole "enterprise" thing followed by the "fedora" program, I don't think I ever will.

    Besides, there's so many other excellent distros out there, as long as you aren't hung-up with "but red hat is corporate, so we need to use it in our business!" thing.

    Download 2.4 gigs at 11KBps for 10 hours before I give enough back to download at 20KBps. I can get the full ISOs off usenet at 7mbps and not fubar my upstream so I can still do other things.

    A couple of years? I thought the only difference between Fedora and Debian was .rpm and .deb?

    Fedora, and the word 'Torrents'.
