Since the 64 bit FC7T3 won't load on my Core Duo system,
I tried a recent rescue cd with the idea of doing a net
install.

I tried several different URLs but could not find anything
that worked.  Furthermore, I could not find what to give for
a URL on the Fedora web site or with Google.

I used the following passage from the installation-guide for fc6:
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/install-guide/fc6/en/sn-installing-networkinstallation.html
But it took some trial and error before it worked.


The net install for some distros comes preloaded with a choice
of working places to download files from.

The net install should present some working defaults.
In any case, it should not require many pages of additional settings
before deciding the URL wasn't to its liking.

I agree that a default url, which could redirect to a random mirror,
would be much more user-friendly. During my net-install I searched on
an other computer for the exact mirror-url and wrote it down. Not
exactly very convenient.
