::* '''Seneca's mirror of the Fedora project:''' http://belmont.senecac.on.ca/fedora/releases/16/Live/x86_64/Fedora-16-x86_64-Live-Desktop.iso (This is very fast, but is only accessible from within Seneca's network - you can't access this from home. You can burn this disc on the machines in the Open Lab.)

::* '''Main Fedora Repository:''' http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/publiclist/Fedora/16/ (Accessible from any Internet connection.)

# Purchase a SATA (Serial Advanced Technology Attachment) removable HDD (Hard Disk Drive) with a minimum of 160 GB capacity from Seneca's bookstore located on the first floor of the SEQ building. I strongly recommend you use this disk drive exclusively for this course. If another course requires a similar HDD you should purchase a separate one and not attempt to use one disk drive for both courses.

#Insert your HDD into the docking bay of a PC in the lab and boot the computer using your Fedora Live CD. If possible try to use the same PC for this course for the rest of the semester. Some PCs may be configured with slight hardware variations from others which may cause problems when moving your HDD from one system to another.

#Once Fedora has loaded, start Firefox and ensure the network is functioning. You will need to authenticate yourself with your LEARN user name and password before Internet access is allowed to the outside world.
