I'm curios, I loaded a fully blown about 5 gig OS, why did it not come with all that is needed?
Because all *everyone* is going to need is considerably more than that. E.g., if you are going to download a complete Debian stable for amd64, that's now 6 DVD images with compressed packages: http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/5.0.3/amd64/iso-dvd/ And I'm not trying to claim that Debian has all you ever need... You just have to recalibrate your view of how much 5 GB is :-) Bjørn
