A use case for this may be when there are multiple CDs / DVDs is to simply provide the user the feed back on which disk of the full set is being checked. This could be helpful for someone who was given a set of CDs that someone else downloaded. Its a really bummer to find out you're missing the last CD after checking 4 others. So being able to change the message to something like "Checking DVD 1 of 2" or "Checking CD 3 of 5" would be a nice touch. Then if anaconda knows its checking disk 1 of 1 it should be very easy to skip ejecting the CD. On 7/9/07, Alexander Todorov <atodorov@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote:

FYI: RHEL3 and RHEL4 will request disc#1 after the final disc. This is because disc#1 contains the variant specific (e.g. AS, ES, WS, Desktop) packages and those are installed after all base package dependencies have been met.
