By the way, current ISO images from the Fedora Unity project contain
all updates/patches through the end of March 2008. This means that
there is very little extra to bring your system up to date after the
install.
Yesterday a Fedora 8 install from the live CD took me only 20 minutes.
But then there were something like 350 updates, lasting another 3
hours.
