Why on earth does Fedora ten not give me the chance to specify an install Server? I downloaded the network install CD as that's the quickest way to get a portable (between home and office) network install up. I thought.
I have a copy of F10 on my LAN and Anaconda's downloading across the country. This is bizarre. Bad for my install time, bad for my internet bandwidth (1.5 M<bits vs 100 Mbits), bad for my download quota and bad for my Internet Access Provider (who has a copy too!).
Have you tried booting with "askmethod"?
In prior releases it wasn't needed. The current implementation needs
change, I will not be the only person caught out by it.
Out of interest, who is your ISP?
Westnet.com.au.
It's local mirror is mirror.3fl.net.au and I can download stuff from
there at about 1.6 Mbytes/sec.
