And it has - use a Live CD, like GRML and the like. |

And that's the reason the Install CD should be dropped. Obviously (by |
| 27 |
the age of the CD), there's a lack of resources. And IMO the scarce |
| 28 |
resources would be better spend elsewhere, then in a Live CD/Install |
| 29 |
CD. |

It needs some way of a Install CD. I don't think, it needs an install |
| 36 |
CD of its own. |
