Actually you need something that will burn dual layer discs.

BTW, i figured out why it went so far over.

There are a number of packages that have both the i386 and x86_64
packages.  And you can't just delete all the i386 packages, because some
are i386 only.  (Like emacspeak.)

A perl script that pulls any i386 package that has a matching x86_64
package would save a lot of pain in the future.

I am testing the AMD64 version on my new HP zv5000z laptop.  AMD64 3700+
with a gig of memory and a 19200x1200 screen.  VERY sweet!

Any way to get the debug packages for FC3-test2?
