The names of the tasks maybe need more description. The reason they are radio buttons instead of checkboxes is that the choices indicate preset lists of yum package groups to install. You can select a task and all of the default packages (as defined in comps) for the groups in that task will get installed, as well as any package dependencies. As of now, this is what the task definition looks like for Fedora: Graphical Desktop admin-tools base base-x core editors fonts games gnome-desktop graphical-internet graphics hardware-support input-methods java office printing sound-and-video text-internet Software Development base base-x core development-libs development-tools editors fonts gnome-desktop gnome-software-development graphical-internet graphics hardware-support input-methods java text-internet x-software-development Web Server admin-tools base base-x core editors gnome-desktop graphical-internet hardware-support java text-internet web-server Minimal core These are the same group names that can be used in the %packages section of a kickstart file, in @groupname syntax. We can modify these tasks, change the names, or add new ones. File bugs against anaconda accordingly. Keep in mind that the idea behind these tasks is to greatly simplify the job of selecting software for installation. They are intended to hit the most common use cases and avoid the need for users to get in to a detailed package selection mode. Users wanting finegrained control over what packages get installed already have that. You can already customize the package list or build a kickstart file to your liking. - -- David Cantrell<dcantrell@xxxxxxxxxx> Red Hat / Honolulu, HI -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkuej38ACgkQ5hsjjIy1VkntaACbBfXjlS2MBtxr+k/HQeDH2xUr q8UAoMm4MwCRjGCpsPz+o6w2C/LWXYDG =8lID -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
