Link to torrent for alpha live cd

[hlebarkata]

I already tried to contact webmaster@fedoraproject.org but I got no response...
May I have better luck in the forum...

The download link for the live media (alpha) show to download it via torrent for i386 but I thought
the live CD's are only available for i686 (However when I try to dl it I get the only one available i686)
Is this a mistake or do I miss something?

You have an old i386 computer? That's pre-pentium and about equal to Cro-Magnon man.
Are you sure you need the i386 one?
If your computer is actually that old, I would bet it wouldn't make you happy at all trying Fedora alpha /testing.

You will probably be quite happy running the i686 version (if it's stable enough.and your hardware is supported and the video works with most distros)

i386 is used a generic name for Intel x86 processors. Release notes has further details.

Use the i686...you will like it..maybe, if it installs good and recognizes your hardware.

I am running an install of F8 right now on interior hard drive , as well as having a F9 install on an external hard drive, that both came from Live Cd installs.
They are both i386/i686 type installs on a AMD64 X2 lappie.
So grab the i686...burn it..boot it.

The Live Cd won't "run" worth a hoot on an old x386 processor..it's to slow..so are x486 (i486) except for possibly a lightweight no GUI server (same for old beater i386's although very questionable). Better are at least PII's and up...but they install fine with the i386 cd's.
As long as you don;t try a x64 bit install cd on a P4 or AMD 32 bit processor, it should work. (if the hardware is recognized well)
Go for it!
