Worked beautifully, except that I got into a seemingly endless loop of installing things. Maybe there's a way one can install "the rest of the distribution" automatically. Then I installed the full DVD, but got Gnome as a desktop and no KDE. I have managed to get most of KDE installed, but KDE graphics seems to have a problem resolving dependencies (newer library already installed), and so I'm not quite there. I would have been happy to have installed the full distribution with KDE, but couldn't find it.
