Let me explain:
I just downloaded F10 dvd iso and burned it onto a DVD -R
It works great and survived a number of tests.
Question: If I repeat the procedure in a few months, will the data change due to updates!
I.e. does the dvd iso image keep up with updates?
If not, I'd expect that the backlog of yum updates would be staggering in a few months.
It doesn't change. There is an organization with a link on
the Fedora site that does do updated DVDs. Fedora-remix?
And yes, the changes are huge even after a month or so. But
it all works. In that situation, you would select a
minimal install from the DVD, then use another method to add
all the packages you want to save the time of installing the
obsolete packages first.
eg rpm -qa > package-list.txt
Edit this to make it a shell script with yum and run it.
eg yum -y update package name on each line.
Not sophisticated but works.
