Boot.iso is for "advanced" users, I would say. Mr. Newbie would be better off to download CD1-3, and see if it lacks anything he needs. But he will be able to setup a "normal" System with that. And if he doesn't need anything, he wont be using the FTPs...
I would say Mr. Newbie would be better of to download the DVD. That way he does not need to see if it lacks anything. Well, ideally, the best Mr. Newbie does is go to the store and buy the boxed set. That way he has all that is also availanle via FTP, including the non-OSS stuff that would come on CD6. In both cases he does not have to worry that he wants non-English or non-German as a language. That might still be the majority of the people in the world. I have helped people with the boot.iso and they were newbies. Not a real issue. At least not much more difficult then a 3CD installation. houghi -- Nutze die Zeit. Sie ist das Kostbarste, was wir haben, denn es ist unwiederbringliche Lebenszeit.
