Use a Workstation install and it will include kde, or use custom
(plz don't do install all, you'll get loads of things you'll never want
need o know are there) The default selections are pretty close to a
workstation install minus some devel packages (they're at the bottom if
you want/need them) You'll see a selection box for both gnome and kde
and right below it is a box to include the other half dozen or so Window
managers. Have fun and good luck.
