I've been running Fedora Core 5 x86 AMD 64 on my laptop since March 20th IIRC?
Looks good to me. I'm a little bummed they removed the right click option for terminal shell and it seems that whenever I do a view details of the boot process my video is hosed once the desktop comes up (ATI 200M).
The add/remove programs only seems to work when connected to the web.
Install was smooth and easy, better driver support than windows XP Pro 64-bit edition (thanks for nothing HP, broadcom, ATI & conexant).

I prefer Stanton Finley's RH/Fedora websites

There's not much of a need for ZDNet's Fedora Core 5 install photos..
For all of my RH/Fedora installations, including Fedora Core 5 (over a month ago), I used Stanton Finley's site... His site is much more informative:
http://www.stanton-finley.net/fedora_core_5_instal lation_notes.html
I'm posting this even though I moderated, just because the story really really is in need of help. (translation, you get two fp trolls)
The "story" is just a bunch of screenshots, and a link to a blog on techrepublic.com.com that you need to register to see. Once I got into the blog, it wasn't even on the page, because this was posted there April 20th with the following "content":
Fedora Core 5 Installed.....Next Stop, XenSource
Tags: open source, linux, virtualization, the hot button, steven s. warren, xen
I just finished my installation of Fedora Core 5. It was a painless installation. I will be concentrating next on getting XenSource installed using Fedora Core 5. The IT grapevine says it is easier to install Xen on FC5 than FC4.
Has anyone out there installed Xen on FC5 yet? If so, I would like to be able to pick your brain if I stumble and trust me I will stumble. Xen seems really difficult to install from the initial reading I have done. I have a sneaking suspicion it is going to be painful. We shall see.

Note: You can also see my other Installation Galleries that I have done by reading the following blogs:
Note: Here is my installation gallery for Linspire Five-O
That was it, just a "have you done it?" and photos, on flickr no less. It was done by Steven S. Warren though, who was the contributer to zdnet, so it wasn't out and out theft, just quite dumb. As someone previous said, looks like they just posted it to display all the ads on each page. But if you want to see that, there is allways the Printable Version with only 1 ad.

My other sig is just as lame
Try disabling DMA on your CD drive for the install (add "ide=nodma" kernel param).
They absolutely do. In fact, I've burned a full set of ISOs exactly *once* since Fedora Core 1, for a friend on a slow connection.
For everything else, I use a USB drive with the bootnet.img image on it, or a CD/mini-CD with their 7M boot.iso.
Hire a Linux system administrator, systems engineer,
The kde-redhat guys do a great job keeping KDE up to date on Fedora.
