Hi Guys,

Both Debian Sarge and Fedora Core 4 (we got Fedora i386 DVD in under
half an hour after its official release time) are now available on
http://www.linuxiso.co.uk/
NWLUG and Menai LUG get a 10% discount by using the code 'nwlug' on
checkout.
For some bizarre reason there is no Sarge AMD64 release yet, can any
debian guru shed light on this?
I will write a review on Fedora Core 4 on the forum some time tomorrow.

Regards
Andrew

amd64 is not officially part of Debian sarge, but the amd64 team did
an independent release [and will maintain it to the same standard as
Debain stable], here's the announcement

<http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2005/06/msg00005.html>

looks like the CD images have not been uploaded yet

Brilliant, thanks for that.
I have had a few requests for it and couldn't find it anywhere (I'm not
a really debian user).

Got the CD/DVD images when they were released a couple of days ago,
already sold a few. I'm aiming to get slamd64 (slackware for AMD64
unofficial) and a few BSDs sorted today.
