John, if you change the source in CVS, let me know and I'll regenerate for the website. I am not the maintainer/writer of the FC3 release notes, but I'll try to expound on this as best I can. I've brought this question to our developers who explained to me that "additional" disk space is used primarily for the following: 1) the copying of the stage2.img image during a disc installation. 2) the RPM transaction 3) the copying and installation of packages As these are ephemeral processes, they need additional disk space above and beyond the required space needed for the various install classes. Closing, this is addressed at least as of FC5t1. |
