Do you know when it's officially released?

I don't mean the torrent files floating all over here... - or are they safe to use?

Thanks - my english is not the best... I always make the same errros... :rolleyes:

Can someone please enlighten us and tell us how to check, if a downloaded (through Bit Torrent) DVD-ISO (or other ISO) of Fedora Core2 is valid? :confused:

Would like to know, if this is the official released ISO...

Thanks in advance,
Martin

That is the official ISO. If you search the forum - you will see that the md5checksums have been confirmed.

The Core 2 servers are due up at some point soon. But I think that us in Europe are currently waiting for America to wake up later before the servers all come online.

I've created a post on the front page to keep you all up to date.

Some of us colonials ARE up at oh-dark-thirty (I have to be at work c. 5:30AM PST) - and as soon as I'd had 2 large sips of coffee, the first thing I did was check my ususal mirrors. Still 550'd - d**n.

Man, I wonder if there's any way I can sneak out of work long enough to go start my Bittorrent download when the announcement comes? Nah, I had better wait until I get home tonight. :)

That's a good point and maybe that will be my first project after getting FC2 going on my machine. I'm on the net using a cable modem and DHCP. Would I be able to use remote SSH with DHCP or do I need a fixed IP address?

Thanks,
