Eh...you wont be able to install that unless you have an NCSU sysadmin
do the configuration for you.

We do have a RHEL license that covers students, however, we have no way
to tell the difference between the production installs and the free
student machines. I've a bug filed with Red Hat against RHN about this.
So at this point we aren't really giving out RHEL to students.

We do have Fedora Core available from the NCSU mirror
(ftp.linux.ncsu.edu).
