I'd suggest making the installer more intelligent at selection/space computation. There's no reason to stick to $min_mark = 4 when there's plenty of space available. I don't know if that's still the case as I've bumped all 3s to 4s in rpmsrate when the problem first showed. Now I have my original defaults back. OTOH, I think it is likely that mdk will ship some prebuilt drivers with 9.1 pp which would make kernel-source unnecessary for probably 90% of driver cases. - Mark
