[K12OSN] Second crack at a FC5-based build of K12LTSP

[bear2bar at netscape.net]

Hi Eric,

Just a simple question for wireless, I'm using a d-link dwl-g650 rev B 
& it needs the madwifi drivers but I can't find them anymore is there a 
replacement or something built into the FC5 to better support wireless?

 ftp://k12linux.mesd.k12.or.us/pub/K12LTSP/testing/5/
 rsync -Pav k12linux.mesd.k12.or.us::testing/5/ .

 I finished my big LTSP package reorg. Standard rules apply, this is a
 first build using non-officially-released software. Assume big ugly
 bugs.

 For the couple of people who asked for just the LTSP rpm packages,
  I copied them here: 
ftp://k12linux.mesd.k12.or.us/pub/K12LTSP/testing/RPMS/
  I have not tried to install them on a stock install of FC5, if they 
break
 you get to keep both pieces ;-)
