1) The only stupid question is the one that is not asked.

2) If anyone wants to run Fedora I suggest they get the binary
distribution of 'WhiteBox Linux'.  It's done by the Beauregard
Parish Public Library and they acquired a new domain name
whiteboxlinux.org.

They are striving to keep a Linux that is compatible with the
original RedHat and retain compatibility.  They say that since it
is based on RHEL3 and RH promises errata to October of 2008 based
on the original RHEL release date and the RH 'promise' of errata
availability of 5 years.
