Netinstall is *old*.

This means you can use your own local intranet ftp serveur for network installations, which is good(tm).

I'm a software version junky. ;) I think in theory you might, in the real world it's always a good idea to start with a working system before rawhidizing it;). (don't be fooled by rawhide current state - it's always gentler at beta time) Regards, -- Nicolas Mailhot
