Is there a website I can Download Fedora 14 32-bit GNOME2 CD so I can use USB?


I need 32-bit CD ISO less than 2GBs large. I don't like GNOME3 at all, and I wouldn't mind putting XFCE on my laptop, but... My desktop is a bit of high-end PC, but I like the simplicity of GNOME2 and also the customization I can do with it. Will Fedora have G2 in the future or should I look for another distro for my desktop?

What's your opinion on GNOME3? Do you like it more than Gnome2

the standard fedora 14 live cd is still very available, from the iso subsite here, from the fedoraproject site itself, loads of places.

I think gnome 3 is new, and people don't like new things as a knee jerk reaction...

I hope you're not referring to me. I am into change, if not, I wouldn't have switched to Linux in the first place. For other users, it may be that, that they're so used to one way, why change to something so foreign and something so hard to get around, something that takes longer? Gnome3 makes things too simple, where it's all in one place, I like being able to instantly access my apps in a single click, not a click, typing in the keywords to locate it, and then click to launch it.

Also, can you send me a Link? Whenever I try to find Fedora stuff on Fedoraproject's website, it only shows Fedora 15.

And just for completeness, snoop around the fedoraproject download pages to find a "all download methods" or somesuch.
Then "see all mirrors". Take your pick.

well don't click anything, just type for it. It's trivial to type "/ch", or whatever the keystroke to start searching is, to get the most common thing you do with a ch in it, e.g. chrome, up and running. Much simpler. And faster. Just different.
