hi,
14 CD's that's toooooo much for me...how come 13 cds for a linux distro
when fedora core 2 has 4 cds mandrake 10 has only 3 cds.Is it possible to
skip some cd's so that i can have only the basic working OS and some more
for kernel source.
Regards
sudhar

Sarge was around 10 CDs in June 2003. Dunno how big it might be now.
