The netinst.iso would involve less downloaded content than the 700M live image. How would it not fit their needs?
*IF* netinst.iso works the first time (no hardware failure, no user error, no user misunderstanding, no power failure, no ISP failure, no phoneline failure, no installer bug, no kernel bug, no X11 bug, ...), and *IF* the netinst.iso is used only once (only one machine, user doesn't change his mind, ...), then the 200MB netinst.iso (plus needed packages) does involve less downloading than a 700MB LiveCD. However, not so long ago my network connection was 150KB/s DSL, and I much preferred to download an entire 700MB CD (1.5 hrs) before installation instead of using netinst.iso. By experience, waiting for the entire CD was faster on average. Something would go wrong during the first install attempt, and I would have to start over. Or, I would install again on a different partition in order to compare two setups. Or, I would give the CD to a friend. The 700MB CD was a cache of time, and paid for itself after only *two* uses. -- -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
