Some stuff that comes to mind:

- ALSA configurator (most probably a given if FC2 uses kernel 2.6.x)

- ALSA configurator that can deal with more than one card and with USB
  audio and midi devices. 

- apt database (and yum if it is not already there) in the install
  cdrom's so that they can be fed to apt-cdrom. 

If ALSA is included and configurable a bunch of useful audio stuff could
be merged in from Planet CCRMA[*] (the site I mantain). 

Too bad that 2.6.x will not include the preemptible kernel feature
activated (saw this on another thread), I was hoping to not have to
provide custom kernels anymore :-(
