Re: Where is The Binary Only Install CD?

[Erich Dollansky <oceanare at pacific dot net dot sg>]

Hi,

you can do it yourself.

Just download all the packages you want but do not install them. They 
files are kept in a location one directory level below where the setup 
executable sits.

Then burn all to CD including the setup program and start it at the 
target machine.
