Amen!
But not everyone has a 700MB or even 650MB CD burner. That's the
reason given for the existence of the ISO files.
Also, the 9.0 MakeCD off a downloaded tree may try and include those
things not in the Mandrake CDs, possibly requiring a 4th CD blank, which
Mandrake did not want to do.
English-speaking users of our troels... downloading script have an
advantage here, because only English components of the 9.0 tree are
downloaded and the 9.0 MakeCD only needs 3 blanks to include everything,
with space to spare:
