The individual package option was removed from Fedora. The last word was that there were no plans to bring it back.
Any particular reason? Install minimal, then add whatever you want? Well, at least we have a choice or will this be removed too? >:o
Not to worry, Bob. Mike's comment is incorrect... the choice is still there.
The choice isn't there.
Yes, you can click in the individual package groups to enable more packages, but this is worlds different from being able to select from all packages available on the install media. In fact, if you do an 'everything' install in fedora, you're presented with a warning that says something like 'this is more packages than just what's available by selecting all packages in all groups'.
For example, I could not find anywhere in the "Select individual packages" the KDE edutainment package. That set of nice educational software IS available as rpms - on disk 3 -, but you'd never know about it if you weren't aware in advance, or you did an "everything" install.
