I am a linux newbie myself..but i think this works.. some one let me
know if i am wrong.
There is a bootdisk.img in the images directory of the Fedora4 CD1(first
of 4 cds) and also in the dvd. You can use this image to make a boot
disk. This will enable you to boot to your installation. You can do this
before you install/upgrade fedora.
Question : Wouldnt the boot disk from fedora 1(or any version) work to
boot into Fedora4(or any version) ?
