While this may or may not be a valid thing to do ... the upstream people (startinf in FC5 (and now fc6 and fc7) have removed this option for RHEL5, fc5, fc6, fc7. They did it for several reasons ... not the least of which is ... you _DO_NOT_NEED_ to install all packages on any machine unless you are doing something _VERY_SPECIAL. In that case ... you can just do this after install: yum install \* It will install everything. _HOWEVER_ ... don't do it unless you need everything !!!! If you think you need everything ... you probably don't ... if you really, really, really need everything then OK, install it. :D Thanks, Johnny Hughes
