I have a "net install" FC6 cd.  I don't ever download all the CDs.  The 
net install just requires that you point the system to a repository.  
The trick is finding the right path.  Even with that sticking point, it 
takes less time that downloading all the CDs.


I've installed FC4, FC5, FC6 Centos 4.3 Centos 4.4 Debian 3.1 and 3 
different flavors of Ubuntu in the last few months, so I know exactly 
what you mean.
