Another sugestion I've just received is: Instead of making an entire DVD ISO with many packages users won't need, and make users donwload it (at least 1.8GB, in our case, 4 GB in north-america's DVD, I guess), a friend has asked me to make just an script. That script could detect the same things, download the necessary packages (about 250MB, or less) and install them and/or built a DVD specific for that user. What do you think? Gonna keep you all aware. > Cheers, > jec > > Cheers -- Paulo de Souza Lima Técnico em Eletrônica e Administrador http://www.pasl.net.br http://almalivre.wordpress.com Curitiba - PR Linux User #432358 Ubuntu User #28729 -- E-mail to [email protected] for instructions on how to unsubscribe List archives are available at http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/projects/ All messages you send to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
