One thing to note, though.  Sometimes the magazine disks are not the official 
release.  I think it was Mandriva 2006 where the magazine DVD was actually a 
very late 'cooker' snapshot.

All valid paths.  If none of them work it's always worth asking on-list if 
anyone has an unwanted magazine disk.  Since I take both Linux Format and 
Linux Magazine I often have two copies of a distro and would be willing to 
post out the unwanted copy to a UK address.  I'm sure others would help the 
same way.
