Mandrake/Cooker Team,

IIRC, Mandrake 9.0 only had about 450 MB on the 3rd download ISO. There
has been much talk on Cooker about what to leave in (KDE Artwork) and
what to leave out. There were some nice packages (AbiWord) that were
left out of 9.0 though there was so much room left on the 3rd CD. Can we
avoid this for 9.1 please?? It would be nice to use up all the space on
the CD's at the very least.

Kind Regards,

Jason


actually we have more space now on dowload edition,
since 9.0 had:

700+700+450 = 1850 MB

9.1 will have:
650+650+650 = 1950 MB

and the 650 MB size was chosen to get working cd:s for every i586 system and newer...

Unfortunately every program tends to grow from version
to version wich means the CD:s get "crowded" and something
has to go...

And not everyone can be pleased about what whould
be on those CD:s...

True, but EVERYONE gets upset when both their preferred software doesn't make it in AND the CD's aren't full. ;)


At least if the CD's are full you could say "well, Mandrake had to choose, maybe next time"....
