Allows for less difficulties in choosing what to install and all machines end up with the same basic content except for the specialty items required due the the computer hardware. Now it takes longer to do an install. Of course that's assuming I could get FC5 to install... I am very disappointed and have given up.
Ok, stop me if I ma wrong. install everthing exists. When you right
click on a group when doing an X install everything in the group is
installed.
So I have been told.  I installed in text mode so I did not use that
method. Does that method work?
