Yes, but I still have to download 670Mb of the first CD. The idea is to have a CD image that doesn't have more then 100Mb (like the rescue CD). How hard is it to make an extra image, just like CD1, but with default installation method one of: network, www, ftp, nfs, etc., and no other .rpm packages? The other thing I put in the mail was the ability to install from a yam server. Maybe I haven't read enough yet. If I put the URL of the yam server in the www download of the installation, will the yam server become a simple www mirror of FC3. -- 10:13:52 up 49 days, 18:37, 4 users, load average: 2.03, 1.58, 1.31 ----------------------------------------------------------------- Martín Marqués | select 'mmarques' || '@' || 'unl.edu.ar' Centro de Telematica | DBA, Programador, Administrador Universidad Nacional del Litoral -----------------------------------------------------------------
