* Install Fedora 16

# Download a copy of Fedora 16 Live CD 64 bit edition from FedoraProject.Org web site or burn the CD using Seneca's Freedom Toaster which is located in the Open Lab on the 2nd floor of the TEL building. Note: we'll be using the 64 bit version of Fedora otherwise known as x86_64 Fedora because all of our lab computers are equiped with Intel 64 bit mainboards and CPUs. Also, we'll be using the Live CD for installation because it's much simpiler and quicker to install a basic Fedora Linux system on a hard drive. Finally, if you're going to burn your CD using the Freedom Toaster then be sure to use a blank CD-R disk. For some reason CD+R disks sometimes fail to burn successfully.
