Re: Fine control on FC5 install

I did an FC5 install on a small machine last night, and I was trying to
leave as much space as I could. During the install I could select groups
of packages to install, but when I clicked to do fine selection, instead
of the list of optional features I got a menu of "all options" or "no
options" in terms of optional packages. That's not helpful, and not what
FC4 does.
Did I miss a step? The help said "don't install optional parts and then
fill in after install," which for 30-40 packages is NOT something I'm
about to do. hopefully there's a way to regain per-package selection.
There should be an option right up front for a minimal intallation. Then use
yumex to see everything there and uninstall what is too much. Be sure to look
for language packs that you will never use to uninstall.
