It probably wouldn't be that hard to craft a minimal single install cd
for Fedora that creates a basic system with networking.  The real
installer then runs after the initial install and allows the user to
pick and choose packages that get installed from remote repositories
using yum.  The initial Fedora install cd already has the i386 kernel
and enough of X to support a graphical install so it could even be fully
"graphical."

This would be a nice option for people who have a fast network
connection.  Integrate it with PXE and kickstart and a business or
school could rapidly install to lots of systems.  Also, it would
probably get more people to consider "passing around" Fedora.

I remember this being discussed back in FC3. All that's been done is
that a disc has been _added_ to the distro.
