It sounds like that you might have too many extra script files.  How I think 
this is intended to be 
used is to only have the script files that you need in install/scripts/ on your 
production server.  
Then use the program install/tools/script-update to update the scripts with the 
latest version from 
unattended CVS.  That works quite well.  That way you only end up downloading 
files that you likely 
use.

One thing to be careful of is that script-update will overwrite any file where 
there is a file with the 
same name in CVS.  So, if you customize a file, you might want to give it a 
different name.
