Fedora Core 1 for AMD64 test1

[Michael K. Johnson]

My announcements aren't as fun to read as Bill Nottingham's, but
hopefully the content makes up a bit for the (lack of) style.

A test release of Fedora Core 1 for AMD64 is now available at
ftp://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/test/0.96/x86_64/
and at distinguised mirror sites near you.  Like the original x86
architecture release, the AMD64 architecture has three binary ISO images
and three source ISO images.  This is a single (we hope and intend)
test release specifically to check hardware support; the package set is
the same versions as an updated Fedora Core 1 for x86 system will have.
Please file bugs via Bugzilla, at http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/
(Product "Fedora Core", Version "test1", Architecture
"x86_64" so that
they are noticed and appropriately classified.  Hardware support bugs
should generally be filed against the <tt>kernel</tt> component, unless
they are specifically about kudzu or anaconda.  Discuss this test release
on fedora-test-list.

We are hoping to make minimal changes before making the final release
available, soon.

Many mirrors are in sync already, many more are still syncing.

As another note - the isos are up and available at:
