Old releases can be downloaded from http://archive.fedoraproject.org/pub/ But you really don't want to use them unless absolutely necessary. You're a bit out of luck, since there's no RHEL release that is near FC4. IIRC RHEL4 is pretty close to FC3, whereas RHEL5 is close to F8. I'd try first googling if the product can be made to work on RHEL (or one of its clones such as CentOS or Scientific Linux), and/or trying to install it yourself on a newer distro. Replacing /etc/redhat-release with the FC4 version might just do the trick... -- Jussi Lehtola Fedora Project Contributor jussilehtola@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
