Fedora 8 is no longer supported and hasn't been for some time, may I
suggest you try Fedora 12, the current release. This version will
contain many enhancements and bug fixes that are not in Fedora 8. All
said though, I did find Fedora 8 to be a good stable release. Rest
assured you will find a very limited number of updates now available for
Fedora 8, and hence unless you choose to  implement bug fixes yourself,
(I doubt that), you will never get them.


I've managed to create a dual boot system of Windows and Fedora, with
grub menu to select what you want to boot up, although this was some
years ago now.
