Yes, I already like that way of viewing things a lot better. It's not
strange for one distro family to have several different download-options
depending if it's for server use, thin-client setup, or KDE vs Gnome.
Come to think of it, *IS* there a 'Server only' download (ISO) image? I
know there's the 'server' install option, but I guess for people knowing
they're going to start bare-bones and then add stuff through the
internet I guess they could start with a much smaller download.
Or alternatively, a server distro with Apache and MySQL and PHP and
Postfix and all that already on the CD/ISO image.
Cheers,
Chanchao
