I just completed installing everything I thought I might like using drakeinstall. Approx 4 times the system failed to complete installation due to various reasons which I could do nothing about. I.E. working in the w's a gimp package is causing a problem. You can't deselect it or remove it without loosing a 300MB download. I found a way to save the 300MB. In a terminal window as root issue the following command:
'urpmi /var/cache/urpmi/rpms/*'. You may be left with 1 or 2 rpms that will not install or any problems with them may be resolved. Anyway its better than redownloading 300MB again.

Thanks, Hoyt. That is a very useful tip.
