I generally do something like that when I am at the College, but at the 
moment, I am in the states for the summer, and only have one machine to 
work on. 

I am guessing that a lot of people might install from the CD image versus the 
DVD since that is the default download but then want to get more complete 
install without having to go thru the individual process of selecting each 
package, and without knowing all the packages it is a hit or miss. 

Thanks for the reply.
