These numbers might be misleading. From http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp .. If you go down and hit the download for the JRE, you will see that the solaris installer of JRE 6 is 17 mb (x86), 6 mb(64 bit) and spark (23 +9 mb).. Thus for an install CD for any one platform the max space would be around 25 mb. Of course if we are to include only the installer, then the JRE wont be availabel in the Live CD session. However i still think the 124 mb is big and it would probably reduce to a LOT less if compresses using the zlib (should compress to under 50 mb). BeleniX uses zlib in lofi and thus allows ~1.8 Gb worth of stuff on a CD. This should be the appx amount of stuff being planned to be included in Indiana default.
