Therefore, the DVD contains only a subset of the actual available rpm's that are in the Fedora repo. I suppose you could go to one of the actual repo mirrors and download everything there onto your local fileserver, but I don't know if you would gain much overall due to the amount of downloading that you would have to do. But that is an option. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com
