Well, I will say this is a nice feature, and I know people who use it on others distros. I won't, because, if the connection is cut during the install, this is bad... But I don't think it should totally disappear. Put the question to the Club. Or try something such as a net-install cd, same as Debian. This way, the iso can be distributed, in a magazine. What about using 2 floppy, instead of one ? Sooner or later, the floppies will be too small, with a driver for each IDE chipset and so on. Just my opinion Mick
