An alternative is to use the KDE Live CD,
install that, and use "yum groupinstall"
to install anything more one wants.



Neither helps me give a copy to my mate.
Neither helps install sans network; I've just tried Ubuntu jeos and, despite being on a CD, it wants to download more stuff from the Internet. Yuck and <plonk>.

The CD-sized images in a DVD solves problems that other techniques do not.

Really, the question is, "Why not?"
