Unfortunately, there's no way to know if you have the CDs or DVD.  The
DVD contains all of the CDs.

Comment 2 Ron Andreasen 2004-07-27 07:36:20 UTC
Then maybe there should be a way to choose which one you have?

It's sad to see that this is closed and under WONTFIX.  I for one
won't be using Fedora unless this gets fixed.  All I'm asking for here
is the option to tell the program that you have the dvd, and not the
multiple cdr's.  I guess that's too hard though or just not important
enough.  I'll keep an eye out for this fix, but certainly won't hold
my breath for it.
