ignoring of course:
- live CD's are really slow to boot and the 'transfer' of the live image will consume a lot of install time
- you get no choice/options of partitioning
- you get a fully bloated installation when completed
a 'server install CD' could solve much of this but it would take a different version of anaconda to be able to do on the fly partitioning.
