As it stands I have to download 2gigs of CD images, then another few gigs of upgrades. This means I download a lot of software on the ISOs that I never use, and anything I *do* use will almost certainly be downloaded twice. As far as I can see, the option of a internet installation would save downloading, and is therefore better for low bandwidth users than the CD+yum approach. -- Jim
