Ok, I may have botched that one. I have been routinely using the fedora 
Live-cd's to install from. Wildblue is a satellite  system and I only 
get 17 gig's/30 days and I spread that among four other members of the 
household.

I will have to look further, there were some options on the opening 
screen that I ignored. Else my NFS server will just have to live with 
Fedora and it's turnover.

And yes I have bought a number of CD's but downloading stuff gets it 
right now when I need it.

Thanks for the response.

Bob
