Well, to be fair we didn't tell them download 6 cds. We told them, if they
were bandwidth-restricted to download the boot.iso and boot and install
via the net talking to a local mirror.

Right, that's true. I remember doing that a lot. IIRC, if choosing a
minimal install the first two CDs would suffice (if the stars were
properly aligned I think - ISTR that it broke at one point).

Anyway, people can still do that, right? (honest question, not trolling.
I don't really know; these days I never use anything but the Live CD to
install.)

yep. In f11 it's called netinst.

Fedora-11-i386-netinst.iso

for example.

it's 177MB. Which is pretty light weight. It has stage2 on it iirc.
