i downloaded Fedora-13-i686-Live.iso from the fedora project web site, and did the instruction on how to burn it using dvd. i used nero selecting burn a CD from an image file. after doing that, i restarted my laptop to install fedora 13 choosing to start the boot at the disk dvd but it won't boot to run the installation. instead the laptop will resume booting to its previously installed OS, fedora 9.
i browse the dvd media and there are 3 folders namely EFI, isolinux, LiveOS and GPL file.
thanks a lot. i'll checked the md5 as suggested following the instructions in fedora project. but i have a problem in curl. i used yum to install curl but i got repomd.xml error.
i'll try your other suggestions and see if it works. i'll keep in touch.
thank you for your suggestions. i got it running by booting it from the cd rom. my problem is that when i installed it using the live cd, i got very little applications. no office org, servers database, httpd, etc. how could i get a fedora 13 installer cd where everything is available?

cd no a dvd yes it is on the download page
however from experience the dvd is not the best way .
Fedora 13 has been out for about 1 month and there will be about 2 to 3 gig's of updates if you use the 3.6 gig dvd and do a full install http://fedoraproject.org/en/get-fedora-options#formats
