New Fedora 9 Re-spins
The Fedora Unity Project is proud to announce the release of new ISO
Re-Spins of Fedora 9.
These Re-Spin ISOs are based on the officially released Fedora 8
installation media and include all updates released as of October 4th, 2008.
The ISO images are available for i386, x86_64 architectures via Jigdo
and Torrent starting Tuesday October 7th, 2008.

DVD Media Only
Due to known problems in comps, this is a DVD Only Re-spin. The CD
version would have required all 6 to 7 discs to install.
Full Installation Problems if Language Support Groups Selected
Selecting some language groups will cause file conflict errors, such as
reported and explained in #465715

Previous Re-Spin (20080718) will expire
Due to limited resources, this spin will immediately obsolete 20080718,
which will be deleted from our mirrors in the next few days.
Fedora Unity has taken up the Re-Spin task to provide the community with
the chance to install Fedora with recent updates already included.
These updates might otherwise comprise more than 2.05GiB of downloads
for a full install.
This is a community project, for and by the community. You can
contribute to the community by joining our test process.
