KS> CentOS.org is hosting the CD-ROM Installation set ( 4 CD Set ) on 
KS> BitTorrent at: 
KS> http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/isos/i386/CentOS-4.0-i386-1to4.iso.torrent

KS> And a DVD-ROM Install Disc on BitTorrent at:

KS> We request you leave your torrent running (and if behind a firewall,
KS> with tcp ports 6881 - 6899 open ) as your client will become part of the
KS> peer to peer bittorrent network and reduce the load on our network
KS> mirrors.  If you need some quick pointers for getting up to speed on
KS> bittorrent read

KS> If you wish to use HTTP to download these files, please check with a
KS> mirror close to you, the files might take a few hours to propagate
KS> through the mirror network.  MD5SUM's for the iso's are provided at the
KS> end of this announcement.

KS> For people in Europe, Relou Mirrors have setup direct http downloads at
KS> http://www.reloumirrors.net/centos4-release/  People outside Europe
KS> should use a mirror closer to them.  A list of http, ftp and rsync
KS> mirrors is available online at 
KS> http://www.centos.org/modules/tinycontent/index.php?id=13  Please use
KS> http and rsync only if circumstances prevent you from using BitTorrent.

KS> Documentation is provided at:  http://www.centos.org/docs/4/

KS> ---------------------

KS> ISSUES:

KS> There are no known issues.  The system installers have been tested
KS> extensively in house by the CentOS Developers and Testers.  Known good
KS> install methods include CD-Rom, HTTP, FTP, PXE, NFS and local Hard Drive
KS> based.

KS> All fixes and updates released by the upstream provider up to 28th Feb
KS> 2005 have been incorporated into the main package tree.

KS> The CentOS 4 RPM Signing Key is available from our master mirror network
KS> and can be imported as:  rpm --import 
KS> http://mirror.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-centos4  (Note:  this is a
KS> final release key, the CentOS 4 Beta and CentOS 4 rc1 key cannot be used
KS> to verify CentOS 4 packages.)

KS> If you are presently running CentOS 4 Beta we recommend a "linux 
KS> upgradeany" upgrade install using the CD Installation Set. If you are
KS> running CentOS 4 rc1, you can use the "yum upgrade" command to move your
KS> installation to CentOS 4.  However, you might want to keep in mind that
KS> debug info present in CentOS 4 rc1 has now been removed in CentOS 4,
KS> therefore the packages are smaller in size. A full reinstall still
KS> remains the best option.

KS> To upgrade from CentOS 3.X or CentOS 2.1 please read this appendix:
KS> http://www.centos.org/docs/4/html/rhel-ig-x8664-multi-en-4/ap-upgrade.html
KS>   If this upgrade method is not adequate please see this (pending)
KS> alternative CentOS 4.x upgrade techniques FAQ entry: 
KS> http://www.centos.org/modules/smartfaq/faq.php?faqid=27

KS> Due to the large number of changes in the core system of CentOS4, 
KS> including the introduction of Udev and SELinux on a 2.6 Kernel, yum
KS> based update and upgrade options are not safe methods to upgrade from
KS> CentOS 3, and would cause unpredictable results.
