I need 30 sets, of every major update. I don't even want to make one set, especially given that "one set" is actually four different sets for the different versions we use, let alone 30. Just being able to buy the CDs would simplify things greatly. If I can't get that to happen ( :-( ), then I'll probably resort to copying the CD images to 8GB USB drives and setting up vmware player with an image to serve them to clients for network installs, but that still adds a dependency of having at least a laptop and network connections for my recovery (not a big deal), and it still requires at least one boot CD per anaconda release. What needless pain. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
