I am not a Red Hat user, but I believe that disks 4 and 5 are _only_  
for source code.  Unless you plan on reading the source code for (or  
recompiling) a significant number of programs, then please give the  
mirrors a little break and leave them on the server.  Later, you may  
download the individual packages as you require them.

PS: I see an unusually large crowd of people praising this release.   
Perhaps I'll have to snag the CDs from the admins at work and put my  
unpartitioned 8 GB to use. :-)
