Spins can be live or regular images though people who have proposed spins have chosen to do live images (some are cd's. others are dvd's) ones. Note that "default" option in http://get.fedoraproject.org is the desktop live cd and not the Fedora DVD image. In fact, Fedora releases can be thought of a sample set of spins and the tools are available in the repository to do your own Fedora, just the way you like it. I kind of have done that myself. http://lwn.net/Articles/311650/ Rahul -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
