I installed "Desktop" defaults and later added development tools, and only required disc 1 and 2 to do that. That will give you fully functioning Gnome desktop with almost all the goodies (openoffice, games, lots of utilities, etc.). HTH, and hope you have fun with Fedora! - - s r b - - fedora core 2, kernel 2.6.6, amd 2500+, ocz ddr400-512, asus a7n8x-x, msi fx5200-128.
