If you can't download it, just buy it from a CDR vendor. $10-15 not to mess around seems worthy to me (yeah, I'm a CDR vendor; no, for the purposes of this discussion I'm not telling you which one).

Here's the alias command I use to burn FC disks:
alias fcburn="cdrecord -v gracetime=2 dev=0,0,0 -dao driveropts=burnfree -eject
-data $1"
Another burning tip - if you have an ide burner, use ide-scsi for burning, so that you can check the md5sum of the burned disk against the md5sum of the iso file (the ide-cd module that Fedora uses by default for cd burning doesn't let you do that, you get a I/O error when trying to md5sum the burned disk)

i set a download to go at midnight with wsftp,(for FC2 and FC3) woke up next morning and had all the iso's, no problems. The http downloads have connections problems (just because of the protocol). I don't understand how anyone can complain about getting an OS for free that can do SO MUCH. My linux skills are vey limited but it is all about doing a clean install.
