I'd rather prefer the desktop alternate cd.
Automatic installation is usually much better done using netboot installation and a local apt mirror. This means you don't have to ferry physical CDs around (although if you have machines that won't boot from the network then you can use the "netboot" mini.iso) and realistically you probably wanted a local mirror anyway rather than having 100 machines all download their updates from the internet. -- Colin Watson [[email protected]] -- ubuntu-devel mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel
