Yup. So if I download just one CD can I unselect all the optional components
except Xen/ Virtualization will it work? Or will it ask for more CDs? (And if
it will ask for more than one CD, will unselecting Virtualization make a
difference?)
The rpms are put on the cd's based on "groups". The groups are done in
the following order. Note that depedencies of these groups go on before
the groups.
addGroups(["core", "base", "text-internet"])
addGroups( ["base-x", "dial-up",
"graphical-internet", "editors",
"graphics", "gnome-desktop", "sound-and-video",
"printing"])
addGroups( ["office", "engineering-and-scientific",
"authoring-and-publishing", "games"])
addGroups( ["web-server", "ftp-server", "sql-server",
"mysql", "server-cfg", "dns-server",
"smb-server", "admin-tools"])
addGroups( ["kde-desktop", "development-tools", "development-libs",
"gnome-software-development", "eclipse",
"x-software-development",
"java-development", "kde-software-development",
"mail-server", "legacy-network-server"])
addGroups( ["news-server", "legacy-software-development"])
You can try it. It tells you how many cd's you need.
If you only select things from the above list the number of cd's will be
minimal.
