I have download fedora 13 two times from the Internet.

First ----Fedora-13-i686-live in winrar (675mb) when I extract winrar Fedora-13-i686-live
After Then in the new folder of Fedora-13-i686-live (675mb) some new file & folder are display.This file and folder are- (EFI , isolinux , liveos) Folder & files are GPL.

Second --- using the bit torrent--- I have download Fedora-13-i386-DVD winrar (3.05GB) & a file Fedora-13-i386-DVD-CHECKSUM
In the winrar to be extract there is a new Fedora-13-i386-DVD(3.07GB) folder is display. In this folder some file & folder are display.
the folder are (EFI,IMAGES,ISOLINUX,PACKAGES,REPODATA) & files are(.discinfo 1kb,.treeinfo 2kb,gpl 18kb,media.repo 1kb,RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora 0kb,RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-13-primary 2kb,RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-13-SPARC 4kb,RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-i386 0kb,RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-sparc 0kb,RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-sparc64 0kb ,RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-x86_64 0kb,TRANS.TBL 4kb)

Re: missing exe or .iso image download from internet

There is no .exe file in the ISO image because .exe files are windows executable files and this is Linux. You cannot run the fedora iso as a program in Windows. The DVD is an installation DVD, you boot it up and do the Linux install from it. Linux is an operating system like Windows is an operating system, it is not a program.
When you downloaded the iso image, it has to burned to a DVD as an ISO, then it will boot.
Have a look at this link and it will explain how that works:
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/...isc/index.html
Hey we were all new to Linux at one point, you'll figure it out. BUT, if your not looking to install Linux to your hard disk, and, you just want to take a look at it, download the LiveCD image, so, when you boot the Iso image you can play with it before deciding to install it.

Re: missing exe or .iso image download from internet

If I understand correctly, you downloaded without error into the fedora-13-i386-DVD folder. From there you have to use a program like CDBurnerXP to burn the ISO to a DVD. Take a look at this link for more info:
http://cdburnerxp.se/
Notice the third key feature which says it will "burn and create ISO files".
BTW - It works in Vista and Windows 7 also.

Don't extract the downloaded ISO image! You can't do anything with the extracted folders and files, you must burn the original single file you downloaded using software capable of burning ISO images.
