Actually, many people do network installs. I have no DVD burner so the DVD ISO does me no good. So I downloaded the boot.iso to load up anaconda, and pointed the installer at the right places on the network. Much less downloading as you only update what you need.
For people who do network based upgrades/re-installs...... would it be feasible, and appropriate to provide a package in the F7 repo which contained the F8 installer image as a grub entry for an F7 system at the time of F8 release. So people could install that and reboot into the installer via their grub menu and do an upgrade via the installer.. instead of being tempted to do a live upgrade just with yum. Clever monkeys can do this manually now with some effort to pull the installer image from the iso. The question is, does it make sense to make this easier for the general userbase and provide a package in a timely manner into F7 for the F8 release? -jef -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
