First Fedora Live CD

Fedora Unity has just release today the first Live CD and DVD of Fedora Core:

"Official Fedora Live images are something we all have been looking forward to seeing in the Fedora Community. Kadischi will be the tool to create such live images. Fedora Unity has recently joined forces with Kadischi to help provide testing and to release live images which we are calling "Live-Spins."

The Fedora Unity Project is proud to announce the release of a new Live-Spin CD and DVD ISO image of Fedora Core 5. These Live-Spin ISOs are based on Fedora Core 5 and all updates released as of August 21st, 2006. They are available for the i386 architecture via BitTorrent starting Monday, August 28th, 2006 via BitTorrent.

The Fedora Core 5 CD image features a 2.6.17-1.2174_FC5 kernel and GNOME 2.14.1, along with applications such as xchat, gftp, OpenOffice.org 2.0.3, and other utilities. The DVD image includes roughly "everything but the kitchen sink.""

There are two releases of this Live CD/DVD, one based on Fedora Core 5 and the other based on Fedora Core 6 Test 2.
