Actually (if memory serves), knoppmyth is currently built from Debian
(unstable). You might want to ask this question in the knoppmyth forum
located at http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/. Also, check out
http://knoppmythwiki.org/ which has all sorts of goodies. As someone
else in this thread said, you may want to check out Jarod Wilson's guide
for Fedora Core installs. Just my two cents...
