URGENT - need installable Rawhide from 5/24 (or 5/25)

[Ian Pilcher]

Sorry to be a bit shrill, but I *really* would like to test whether

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=151653

is actually fixed before F7 ships.

I've checked 15 or so mirrors, and none of them has yesterday's or
today's Rawhide (including the installation kernel/initrd).

If anyone knows of a current mirror, *please* let me know.

Thanks!

You'll probably get decent speed as there are 10 seeds and 80 peers for
the i386 version right now.

It's going now, but it'll take 12 or so hours at the current speed.
Downloading 2.5G just to get to Disk Druid seems a bit excessive...

Agreed - we're working on getting something smaller (e.g. a Rescue CD
for Rawhide) out there. Hang on a bit..

http://people.redhat.com/~katzj/F-7-i386-rescuecd.iso is the i386 rescue
CD corresponding to the RC2 spin.  It has the stage2 bits.  

In progress should be a .discinfo showing up in the rawhide tree so that
you can download and burn the small image, point at
http://download.fedora and then at least get into stage2 to make sure
that things look okay.  You should even also be able to do installs
then, dependent on the speed of your net connection of course.

Worked like a charm.  :-)  Better yet, I was able to install onto a
pre-existing software RAID device (on a bunch of IDE drives) without
reformatting it.

Thanks!

Until we get usable boot images back in rawhide, you could try one of
the RC2 DVD images from http://torrent.fedoraproject.org/

Those can be installed over the network, if you don't want to / can't
burn DVD media.
