I would like to be able to DL a boot cd that would give me the options to choose a mirror close to me and install all the files from there hence receiving all the latest software without having to update everything after the install is finished. The only reason I bring this up is because last night i re-installed FC3 because of a problem I could not fix. I like being able to use the DVD ISO but then it took another ~1 hr to do all the updates. Would have been nice to boot from a boot cd and then choose what I wanted and not have to run yum to update everything after a freash install. Hey it was just food for thought. Maybe someday it will arrive. :) - -- Regards Robert Smile... it increases your face value! -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFB+97I0xJrO8dQYHgRAl0nAKCv/2LY9zVVeSrjmqokPb5MM0I5QwCfSaNg ZHFSxpaL0ugFTaa5u71Ns20= =UDWe -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
