starting them on their way. All the packages are stored in
/var/cache/apt/archives. (You could also get creative w/an NFS share,
etc, etc)."


hmmm this is interesting... so in theory:
if I have a mythbox already setup and working on .11,  I can first do a
dist-upgrade to make sure the system is up2date sans mythtv.12
have them install RH9
have them install kickstart apt package
have them uncomment the bleeding repository
have them copy over the files from my /var/cache/apt/archives dir
have them do a apt-get update
then have them do a apt-get dist-upgrade
then finally apt-get install myth-suite

this sound about right... if it is I'm excited.
