I meant the CD. The book said it would install a
'working' system, so you can download/update the rest
over a LAN, isp, whatever... Didn't try it myself.
The DVD is the equivalent of the 5 CD set so I don't
think it counts as a 'one disk install'. It was also
dual layer. I had to boot from the CD to initialize my
USB connector so I could install from a USB DVD drive
I borrowed from my sister. Surprised the heck out of
me when it worked.
