That you will have to buy in boxed sets. The last two CDs contain
proprietary / non free software as well, which can't be burnt and
distributed.
not true. the last two cd's contain only sources and no binary packages at
all. even the 3rd cd is partly binaries and partly sources.

ps: there is perhaps more than one 5cd set. in fact, redhat seems to have
several flavours with different combinations of support and non-free
packages thrown in. the official boxed redhat cd's make almost no sense in
india; what you get is mainly support and if you are in india, there is
not much support you can get.
