No, there are mirrors for installing from the internet too, so I don't see how that can be a problem. Mixing rpm files from one distro to another? Not a good idea, you are certain to get things messed up that way, especially when so much is available. Smart? As the old saying goes, half a dozen of one, six of the other. Ask different people, you'll get different answers. Smart has certainly matured since 10.0, but there are still a few bugs to work out. I haven't used it, so can't say if the problems are with the program or with the repositories of files.
