Not too long ago (maybe within a couple of months or so) there 
was a discussion on creating DVDs to install special-purpose 
versions of Mandriva, e.g. Gnome desktop (which Mandriva itself 
no longer supports directly).  You might go to the forum archives 
on nabble and search.

I found the complexity implicit in some of the stuff to be more 
than I was willing to dig into, much less try to use.

Cheers!
