Installation types

[Stuart Ellis]

Just to see if anyone can shed some light on this...

I'm looking at the Installation Types section of the Guide, and both the
installation system and the documentation for RH9 imply that the
Installation Type determines the default partition layout.  At the
moment every type has the same default partition layout (100Mb /boot
partition, swap of 2x RAM, the rest in /), so the Installation Type only
controls the default package group selections.  Is the concept of
varying the partition layout by Type something that is expected to occur
in future versions, or are references to it traces of an idea that died
at some point ?
