Need to Download Fedora 9. Mirrors available here not working

Preshv · 09-28-2010, 11:18 AM

I am trying to download Fedora 9 from the one of the mirrors listed on the website. All of them give error message that the file does not exist. Is there a place where I can download them from.

Thanks
Vic

Fedora 9 has reached its "end of life" and is no longer supported in any way, this is why they have removed it from the download mirrors.

Is there a reason you cannot use the current Fedora 13 release?

there is a way BUT seeing as 9 is AND HAS BEEN dead for a while .
We(and YOU) need to WHY 9 .

install 13 then in Nov fedora 14 comes out, install 14 (then 6 months later fedora 15... and so on)

No particular reason other than it worked on another computer and thought we would try it before going to 10 or 11.

you do know that fedora 10 and 11 are BOTH past there END OF LIFE and that fedora 12 will hit it's end of life in about 2 months .

INSTALL fedora 13 , then in about 90 days install fedora 14 .
