WARNING 2: We are only supporting 64bit Linux OSes with our binary convenience artifacts. If you happen to have an older 32bit one you can rebuild Bigtop from source but you won't be able to install from our repositories, so the rest of the instructions won't apply to you.

NOTE 1: We support Fedora 16; however, we haven't released any binary artifacts for it. We tested Bigtop 0.5.0 on Fedora 16 using Fedora 17 binary artifacts. If you wish to use Fedora 16, please use Fedora 17's binary artifacts in the instructions below.
