You do realise btw that if you pick the minimal install as it exists now
(which is about 90mb), you have exactly what you describe? No engineering or
arguing needed for that..
See my emails a week (or 2?) ago on this topic.. you can fit suprisingly
much on 1 CD, i even wrote a little tool to measure this and calculate
dependencies, install & packaged size. Suffice to say you can fit all of the
base utils, x, gnome desktop (and apps), mozilla and openoffice on one
install cd... easely (and thats including the complete build tools,
and -devel packages)
Measure twice... cut (or argue) once :-)
