Iirc, there has always been a way to do a fresh install off the Net, though I've never had the confidence to try it. But the wording on the wiki page about Fedup somehow sounds to me more emphatic than before. So is there a hand-holding page somewhere that explains to subtechnoids just how to do a net-install?

Well, you can use boot.fedoraproject.org -- download one of these and go. http://boot.fedoraproject.org/download

Sure, but fedora 17 and 18 should be there.
I suppose we could supress EOL releases, but it was thought that they might be useful for someone. I can look at moving them to another menu at least.
rawhide cannot be installed this way as rawhide doesn't create install images.

+1 EOL'd for another menu.

True, sorry.

First, thanks very much for the feedback. ;)
Second, could you try and be more expansive in your comments, I wasn't sure where some of these issues were. :)
- Double ^Install, fedora_install.conf & fedora_eol.conf
I assume you mean the menu title when you go to the fedora-eol section? Fixed.
- Incomplete ^Rescue, fedora_rescue.conf - only 15/16/17
Added 18 there and dropped 15/16.
- Partly illegible ^About BFO, bfo.conf - intertwined text and background
Odd. Can you get a screenshot of this?
Thanks again.

Title and label too. Proposal for sync install menus, mutually: - fedora_install.conf MENU TITLE Releases Install MENU LABEL ^Releases - fedora_prerelease.conf MENU TITLE Pre-releases Install MENU LABEL ^Pre-releases - fedora_eol.conf MENU TITLE Unsupported End of Life releases Install MENU LABEL ^Unsupported End of Life releases - fedora_rescue.conf MENU TITLE Rescue Releases MENU LABEL ^Rescue Releases
- Incomplete ^Rescue, fedora_rescue.conf - only 15/16/17
Added 18 there and dropped 15/16.

I tweaked these some.
...snip...
I'm not sure how to fix that off hand.
I will have to look into it more.
