Ben Williams, Fedora Ambassador and founder of the Fedora Unity Project, announced for the the Fedora Respins-SIG project the availability of a new set of updated Fedora 25 Live ISO respins.

Tagged with build number F25-20170718, the new Fedora 25 Live ISO respins contain all the security patches and software updates that have been released through the official Fedora repositories since the last versions of these unofficial Live ISO updates, specifically build F25-20170704.

Apart from including all the updates that have been released on the stable repos of the Fedora 25 operating system, the Fedora 25 F25-20170718 Live ISO respins are powered by the newer Linux 4.11.8-200 kernel, and, as usual, they're available as Workstation (GNOME), KDE, Xfce, LXDE, MATE, Cinnamon, and SoaS flavors.

The last set of Live ISO respins for Fedora 25

Now that the Fedora 26 Linux operating system has been officially released, this is the last set of Live ISO respins that will be released for Fedora 25. From now on, the Fedora Respins-SIG team will start building Live ISO respins based on the Fedora 26 release.

"This will be the Final Set of updated isos for Fedora 25. We are converting our builders to start providing Updated Fedora 26 isos in the near future," said Ben Williams in the announcement. "With F25 we are now using Livemedia-creator to build the updated lives."

As expected with any new build of the Fedora Live ISO respins, they will save you approximately 850 MB of updates that you would normally have to download after installing the operating system using the official installation images. You can download Fedora 25 F25-20170718 Live ISO here.

Before downloading them, please try to keep in mind that these images are here only for users who want to reinstall their Fedora 25 operating system because of whatever reason, without having to download almost 1GB of updates from the repositories. They can also be used to deploy Fedora 25 on new PCs.
