No, I was aware of it, but I wanted a standalone install set - I often build up machines away from network connections for various reasons, many with their roots in being too lazy to run a net connection to my workbench ;^) (I fear if I run a net drop to the workbench, it will make it too easy to just leave the running machines on the workbench instead of moving them to shelving/racks for a more permanent home...)

Besides, if I wanted to do a super-dooper mega install, I'd still have to load up 12 Gig from the network 8^)
