My main complaint about the way the packages are divided up is that there seems to be no automation of the "hmm, it's not on that CD-ROM, must be on one of these others" process. Inferior systems have had the "now insert disk 5" routine down pat since the disks were 8" floppies. In short, I want to be able to pick packages from a complete list and then have sysinstall direct my disk swapping. Last time I installed from CD (4.1) this was not the case.
