+</I>&gt;<i> CD or DVD, either is too big to download on my dialup. a 700meg cd would take
+</I>&gt;<i> a week to download considering that I have to keep phone line free during the
+</I>&gt;<i> day and early evening.(that's of course as long as the server supports
+</I>&gt;<i> resuming and the download doesn't break, which of course you don't find out
+</I>&gt;<i> until the end, then you have to start all over. :/
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> People with limited connectivity want to be able to obtain media with
+</I>&gt;<i> everything they are likely to need plus all the options if possible.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> It's why I went with OpenSUSE rather than Ubuntu, Suse comes on a dualsided
+</I>&gt;<i> DVD, 64 bit one side, 32 bit the other, live gnome and kde sessions on both
+</I>&gt;<i> sides and lots of options so that you can install a full system of your choice
+</I>&gt;<i> from desktop to webserver without needing a broadband connection.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Ubuntu on the other hand /only/ comes on CD with one DE and a basic desktop
+</I>&gt;<i> only install and it assumes you have a network connection, yet it can't setup
+</I>&gt;<i> a dialup connection during install, MDK 8.0 used to do that no problem.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Please, DVD and a way to obtain the media at a reasonable price.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Cheers
+</I>&gt;<i> GL
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>
+Would there be a way to restore the capability for dialup connection at
+install time?
+
+I like the Community approach that Wobo suggested.
