I don't mean to hijack this thread, but along the line of a minimum
install, considering that after installing FC, generally, near half
the packages need updating due to feature and devel freezes, how about
a bare minimum spin....just enough to get to the internet, hit
fedorasolved.org (via browser) to check for important
messages/notices. Then do a yum/piruit update/install. Purely from my
gut feeling, lacking any scienntific checking, it seems that one may
actually use less bandwidth to get a complete (customized) desktop or
solution.

Call it Fedora Base
