As it is now, the entire distro is contained in a single tarball and the installer only needs to format the drive and dump the tarball onto the formatted drive and run setup. When you go to package management you have a whole new game and it would be a lengthy install or would it not be necessarily so? Depending how common of a packaging system is used, it could set up IPCop to be abused easily by the folks wanting to run server software and more on their firewall. -- Dave Studeman http://www.raqcop.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow!
