Thank you. I will have to go bum a fast internet connection someplace and download these various suggested software packages and try them out. I will get back to this list in a few days and report my results. <br><br>MJI <br>

</div>You can download them. Most people do this online using a package<br>
management utility like yum or the various PackageKit bits. You can<br>
download the i386 RPM directly here:<br>
<a href="http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/10/Everything/i386/os/Packages/ltsp-server-5.1.34-2.fc10.i386.rpm" target="_blank">http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/10/Everything/i386/os/Packages/ltsp-server-5.1.34-2.fc10.i386.rpm</a><br>
<br>
Or the x86_64 RPM here:<br>
<a href="http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/10/Everything/x86_64/os/Packages/ltsp-server-5.1.34-2.fc10.x86_64.rpm" target="_blank">http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/10/Everything/x86_64/os/Packages/ltsp-server-5.1.34-2.fc10.x86_64.rpm</a><br>
<br>
They may have package dependencies that would also need to be<br>
downloaded by hand if you insist on not using a package manager.<br>
<br>
If you can install into Fedora 10 online, just:<br>
<br>
yum install ltsp-server<br>
<br>
and consult the install guide here:<br>

</div>No need to be belligerent here; people are trying to be helpful.<br>
<br>
The Fedora 10 K12Linux is a Live CD, and download size was kept to a<br>
minimum. It typical for Fedora to not include everything but have<br>
various "spins" that include different sets of packages. Anything from<br>
the Fedora 10 distribution can be added after the fact on a F10<br>
K12Linux install using yum or the Add/Remove Software tool described<br>
by others.<br>

<br>
</div>What is this "full package" you're looking for? Most distributions<br>
don't include the full scope of available packages in their default<br>
install due to space constraints on CD/DVD media.<br>
