Re: download

Thank you for your swift response! After I wrote to you, the whole thing sped up considerably and I succeeded downloading Fedora 20 x89_64-bit. It downloaded apparently fro "riken.jp". Fine. But the burnt DVD does NOT do anything. I get a little white, blinking bar in the left upper corner. That's it. Or, if I start Linux on the computer where I want to install it, the DVD is not recognized / mounted. In a Windows computer I can see the contents of the DVD, but there is no way to "run" it. Is there anything I can do about this? Or is the ISO broken? Sorry for the trouble.
