Can the displayed string be altered, or does anaconda require showing
the base name of the rpm?

Alternatively, all but the lirc kmdl rpms have a master packages that
requires in the kmdl packages, e.g. alsa-driver for alsa, bttv for
bttv-kmdl etc.

I am meaning to look into the automatic enabling of lm_sensors for
quite some time now and am forgetting it. That's where a nagging
bugzilla would have been helpful. I believe the bugzilla instance is
ready to be launched.

Stefan, is it possible and does it make sense to test the DVD in NFS
network install? Most parts of anaconda like the package selection
algorithms would be the same, I suppose.

It would make testing easier, as one would only need to download a
couple of files and us local mirrors of the packages. Shorter testing
cycles and testers w/o DVD burners would be able to jump in.
