I dunno what slipstream means either, but, I will hazard a guess about updating the CDs-- make directories, replace packages ./gendepslist to make a new hdlist.cz, then install once and make3 a floppy of the package selections, since the categorical selections will no longer relate to the packages. I personally make an install completion CD to run the updates off a fourth CD after the regular install is done (plus Java, RealPlayer, Yahoo Instant Messenger, etc) with a very short Python routine that calls rpm for each of the packages and after checking that user desktops have been activated puts icons on the desktop for a few items that don't go on menu. I also add some menu entries for the simplified menu cause I want OpenOffice to pop up there instead of KOffice or the Gnome stuff. Civileme
