Thanks Derick! I thought 4.0.1 should have all changes of 4.0 incorporated. If I am not going to do upgrade but fresh install, directly go to 4.0.1 should be right choice. Am I correct?

You should be able to download the YDL 4.0 installation manual, and ISOs then create your own CDs and install from them. Then you'll be on your way as all the software supplied works together.
