It's akin to what we do for people who insist upon text only installs. Something else not terribly unreasonable, instead of split CD media, a single CD offered that is netinst.iso plus the contents of @core and @base if it'll fit on a CD. Then they can do whatever custom install they want, and add packages after install, either from a DVD media or from a local mirror, or from the Internet. -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- Freedom² is a feature! identi.ca: http://identi.ca/jkeating
