Fedora Project 3. What do I download?
A) I want to know what some of these acronyms mean and
B) I need to know which one is approprite for my system

I got 2 choices:
FC3-i386-SRPMS-disc1.iso
FC3-i386-disc1.iso

What does SRPMS mean? What is the difference between them?

EDIT> Re-reading this, I think I sound alittle craby but dont know to change the tone to be more up beat. Come on, just got home from work and my mind is drained, whatcha expect

Anywho, I cleared out my removeable drive (again) to install another flavor of Linux (again).

SRPMS refers to the source code. You don't need to download that unless you feel like compiling everything yourself.

Get FC3-i386-disc1.iso.
