I must admit that i never did that for testing, as i despise the optical disk handling. I mainly used the ISO in KVM and for physical machines i used it from a pen drive.

With gdm one gains the fexibility of easily running multiple sessions on the same machine. Furthermore it very well integrated with the gnome screensaver, which is also installed as default. With both together, via an active screensaver instance, any user can with one mouse cick easily open an additional X session on another virtual console, which is a very useful facility. Usually i run a virtual instance of wmlive on another virtual console, using XDMCP to connect to the virtual machine. With wdm this feature would be sorely missed, and i really wouldn't want to renounce on this. > Probably you can remove some packages, to fit in CD :-) > Possibly. Maybe abiword, gnumeric, and the gimp? I renounced to use libreoffice due to its sheer installation size, but the again i found it a bad idea to not install any basic word processor and spreadsheet, And no, Emacs will definitely stay! > There is a warning/error with something in the booting progress.

In the long run. i probably won't be able to handle this all alone on my own. > Tomorrow more ;-) > Thanks! I'm looking forward to your suggestions!
