Note though that if you're trying to avoid the trouble of downloading and 
burning 4 CDs, it is possible to do a network install over the internet. 
Assuming you have broadband access from the installed machine and don't 
need fancy drivers during the install. I did manage to install a machine 
using only the brlfc4.iso. You need to find some FTP or HTTP server and 
give the URL to the installer, and there are no tools to debug your 
network setup. But when it works, it's nice :-). If you're a novice or you 
have trouble getting the network setup right, then downloading and burning 
CD images is less trouble.

Good luck
