On your mockup the download link is already too deep on the root page.
If you want to propose a quicklink it needs to be on top of the page

Actually recent usability studies have suggested that 'below the fold'
is not the concern it was once thought to be. I think Jakob Nielsen even
posted about this in his alertbox somewhat recently.
Just to play devil's advocate, but is this something we even want to be
discussing until we've carried out usability studies on the current
website like we plan to do?
I've no idea of the answer to this question!
Well below-the-fold or not is a general web site layout question that
isnt really specific to FPO. Here's one reference:

Honestly, if that download link was the most important thing about
Fedora and on that page, you could argue for it being above the fold
just because it's so fundamental, but I don't agree with the logic that
to be on the page at all it must be above the fold.
