    This is where I wasn't sure when I replied to Brian earlier today.  
I'm of the old school, where we had to explode the tree (copy all the 
discs into one large folder) and till this day, I still do that.  Call 
it routine if you will.  There is another reason why I like doing this: 
it's easier to install missing packages afterwards - they're already 
exploded and ready to go.  I keep a live tree of both the Fedora install 
discs as well as the SRPMS discs (and updates) that I can access at any 
time.
