This question is answered in the Installation HOWTO. Briefly, you cannot mix versions. OK. I guess I can make the HOWTO even more precise. You may not mix either editions of the Speakup Modified, nor may you mix Speakup Modified iso images with iso images from stock Fedora releases. The reason is simple. The packages contained in the iso images are not in the same place, and many are upgraded. There has been almost one gigabyte of updated files since the release of Fedora Core 3 in November, for example. Stock Fedora does not include those updates, but the Speakup Modified does include them. I'm sorry you're seeing bad download times. This is a known problem, and we are working on it. However, don't expect a fix in days. It will take weeks at best. Michael Malver writes: > I am getting truely horrible connect times when downloading the fedora core > disks.
