I agree on that point completely. I am not sure how the Fedora guys 
worked out that most people use the GUI installer, and how small the 
'everyone else' number was.

In the last 5 days I've done maybe 2 dozen installs, not one of them was 
GUI or VNC. And the client policy onsite is to not have any dhcp, which 
made pxe/cobbler quite hard ( even with koan, getting static ip setups 
in cobbler are quite a lot of work unless you have dhcp to 'hardwire' 
mac->addr )
