[lug] Installing from DVD

[Michael J. Hammel]

Dumb question:  Fedora 7 only comes on DVD.  I've got a DVD player on
one box.  I've never tried booting a DVD from it.  If it boots when it
has a CD in it will it likely boot when it's got a DVD in it?  If not,
anyone know where I can get Fedora 7 on CDs?  It's time to upgrade from
FC5 (since ATrpms doesn't support it anymore).

And what do I do if I don't have a DVD player on all my boxes?  Some of
my boxes are running without CD or DVD drives.  When I upgrade, I move a
CD drive between them.  I don't have a spare DVD drive.

I've always been happy with Fedora, but is it really necessary to
distribute all 7500 packages in the base installation?  Isn't that what
the repositories were for?
