i'm gonna try that and see if it works. i'm currently running Fedora Core 4.
with this one i had no problem with the graphical installer. if you know
could you tell me what has changed so much in the graphical installer for
the 6th version of Fedora? maybe that's the problem.... anyway i'm looking
forward to the next distribution release.
