There should not have been a folder - it's just a single file to burn

installation. Please help me as i really have to use it and i will be very
grateful to you.
download.fedoraproject.org is merely a redirector. Do you by chance
know the IP or DNS name of the actual machine from which you
downloaded the ISO file? Did you verify that the ISO contents
matched, as described here: http://fedoraproject.org/en/verify
?
I am concerned that what you describe should absolutely never happen,
and that you received something which was not produced by the Fedora
Project.
Do you have any USB keys or similar, attached to this system, which
could have been the source of the Caldera DR-DOS environment, and not
the ISO image?
Thanks,
