The bottom line is that the 'everything' selection was very useful. Where I work that is just what we do to all servers and workstations... install everything. Allows for less difficulties in choosing what to install and all machines end up with the same basic content except for the specialty items required due the the computer hardware. Now it takes longer to do an install. Of course that's assuming I could get FC5 to install... I am very disappointed and have given up.
