[K12OSN] Install packages from full Fedora 10

[Michael Izak]

Hello.  I don't have a network connection to the outside.   You are right,
the fedora 10 DVD files are RPM not RAR.  My mistake.

Are you saying the LTSP 5 package is not part of the Fedora 10 full package
and that I would have to access some online software repository for the LTSP
5 package?  I don't understand why I can't download the LTSP 5 package and
install them.

Otherwise I would have to go back to Fedora 6 and LTSP 4 because that's the
last full Fedora package there is.   I don't even understand the genius
behind the act K12linux was deliberately bowderlized with barely the minimum
Fedora 10 stuff.

Is there another Linux brand that offers BOTH the full package and LTSP 5?
ubuntu?  What's the download link?
