>I believe most of the features that you are looking for will we
addressed via Text Installer. This is coming soon. We are addressing
the static IP issue and looking at the ability to configure other
directory servers. Do you have any specific set in mind ?<

Really, it is just that.  Set the IP statically, setup Kerberos, setup DNS, set 
the default route...  The text installer with these options would be great.

But.... I believe I'm moving this discussion in the wrong direction (maybe 
still helpful).  The real issue at hand for me is having to install from the 
live install CD then having to connect the system to the internet (not always 
possible) to get the packages you need or install a local repository ~8GB to 
get the packages you need (may only need  2 or 3 packages).  The live install 
wouldn't be so bad if you could manually download and install (pkgadd) the 
packages you need instead of having to use the installer.  I've heard that at 
some point this may be available. But, having the packages available at install 
time, for me, would be the best and most productive option.

Thanks,

Michael
