Re: PPC Image size

 

I'll try the alternate when I get back to my studio this weekend. (I'll
also burn the desktop installer to a DVD to be sure it works, too.)

Since a lot of Mac Mini users have just the SuperDrive that only burns CDs,
the alternate will probably see more use this time around.

Is there a way to make an installer that has a minimal usable working
desktop, but is primarily a net installer to reduce space needed on the CD?
Just a brainstorm that's probably already been discussed a long time ago.
