FWIW, it's not so much "lack of committment" as "too many other pots on the fire". I'm working on getting at least some level of documentation for some of these things shoved into the anaconda package, but to be honest, I just don't have the time to sit down and write full documentation of it. As always, we tend to accept patches, including new files which document some of the bits of the process. Otherwise, I'll keep plodding along and eventually get to where there's more documentation. Not enough hours in the day between classes and work. On the subject of just update mechanisms, we actually do have a pretty complete list of ways that you can do installs and use update disks (either as real disks or just images that get sucked in for the likes of ftp/http installs) in the anaconda in Skipjack. Take a look at /usr/share/doc/anaconda-version/install-methods.txt Cheers, Jeremy
