The answer is here: Fedora Linux 42!
by Matthew Miller 15 Apr '25

15 Apr '25

Fedora Linux 42 is now officially available! Read the details in our Fedora Magazine article at: * https://fedoramagazine.org/announcing-fedora-linux-42 or download installer images from: * https://fedoraproject.org/ or, of course, simply upgrade your already-installed systems, which shouldn't take much longer than ordering and consuming something which is almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea. If you run into any trouble, or just have questions, you can find help at: * https://ask.fedoraproject.org/ NOTE: there's an important known issue with some of our Live media in this release adding extra UEFI boot entries. We caught this too late to reasonably pull things back. For details, see * https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/148774 -- Matthew Miller <mattdm(a)fedoraproject.org> Fedora Project Leader
