Re: Confusion on Rocks

Hi Jeremy:

   You might want to re-target this post to the Rocks discussion list.

   You can download the "super-rolls" which incorporate everything onto 
a single DVD.  Most of our installs are fine with that.

   If you want more control over this, you can download individual 
rolls.  Take a look at which rolls are in the DVDs and pull those down. 
  If you want, we have a nice roll for serial console support, along 
with our ctop tool, pdsh, and a few other useful bits.  You can find it 
here
