This is fantasic bit of work - reading through the email, I agree - this should give us a pretty good idea on the split.
One point though - if we were to do :
dvd#1.iso dvd#2.iso ( which contains things otherwise not installable via the installer )
and a distro-everything.iso ( at about 7GB, for people who want to host it on USB keys and nfs mounts etc ),
then is there any point in the dvd#2 ? if people cant use it install time ?
- KB
If packages on DVD#2 aren't installed by a rpm dep from packages on DVD #1, and that those packages aren't referenced in the comps.xml (that can force packages to be installed without any rpm dep), I'd be inclined to skip dvd #2, and just have all those packages on the mirrors (and included in the distro-everything.iso, that can be used on a usb stick)
we'd need to be very very sure that dvd#2 does not get anything that might otherwise get used from the installer.
