Hi Eric,

I'm trying to install K12ltsp on our new twin 64 bit xenon box.  I have used 
a FC-64 bit DVD iso for the install and have grabbed the K12 rpms listed 
below from:

ftp://k12linux.mesd.k12.or.us/pub/K12LTSP/4.4.1/

I'm trying to follow the steps listed below but there is no GPG key to 
import in the ftp://k12linux.mesd.k12.or.us/pub/K12LTSP/4.4.1/RPMS/x86-64 
directory.

Can I import one from the 
ftp://k12linux.mesd.k12.or.us/pub/K12LTSP/4.4.1/i386/ directory?

I would like to use a Fedora Core 4 based OS if possible.

Thanks for any help.

Jim
