Back to the quality control issue: Clicking the download link
at the above site gives a 'Not Found' error:

The requested URL
/fedorareloaded.com/podcasts/FedoraCore5-Test2.zip.torrent was not found
on this server.

I've had better first impressions...

I recall seeing discussions of lost data on this mailing list

strong although I didn't expect hardware damage. I just
don't want much downtime or chances of mistakes when
selecting partitions for the new install.
