Note that there's absolutely no reason to download all of the CD's. Trying to distribute the entire Debian archive - even for a single architecture - on hard media is very close to pointless. You don't need it for installation; and after that, everything is available via your local mirror. I personally use a 180MB ISO for installs. The available packages for Debian don't indicate bloat. They indicate a very large, distributed developer base and a lot of hard work. - Jeff -- No clue is good clue. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
