       <package>Trusted Boot (tboot)</package> is an open source, pre- kernel/Virtual Machine Manager module that uses Intel(R) Trusted Execution Technology (Intel(R) TXT) to perform a measured and verified launch of an OS kernel/VMM. It checks to make sure system files haven't been tampered with before letting the system boot, offering much greater protection against rootkits and other types of malware that try to cover their tracks by editing those files. <emphasis>Trusted Boot</emphasis> can be enabled at install, and will fall back to a normal boot if the hardware doesn't support it.

+      Fedora has recently introduced a new site, "Ask Fedora".  If you
+      run into a problem and would like some assistance, go to <ulink
+      type="http" url="http://ask.fedoraproject.org" />.  Many answers
+      are already there, but if you don't find yours, you can simply
+      post a new question.  This has the advantage that anyone else
+      with the same problem can find the answer, too.

+    <para>
+      You may also find assistance on the <filename>#fedora</filename>
+      channel on the IRC net <filename>irc.freenode.net</filename>.
+      Keep in mind that the channel is populated by volunteers wanting
+      to help, but folks knowledgable about a specific topic might not
+      always be available.
