You will have to divide packages up into several catagories, so you can spread them over two (or even more) dvd's (desktop / server ?) What is so bad about multiple DVD's ?
It's so pointless. The point of the DVD is to have a compromise between those that have fast network and prefer network installations and those that have slow internet and prefer small downloads, but still want software.
That does not sound right at all. Why would anyone on the slow network bother to download a full DVD and install only a part of it? It makes sense for them to download a NET image and let the installer download *only* the needed/wanted packages from the repositories.
For me, DVDs always make sense when downloaded elsewhere. On places with fast network like universities. Then burn it (or provide it via pxe), bring home and install w/o downloading anything.
Why would you download it elsewhere if not because you have slow internet? Greetings, Stephan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
