Yes I know I can do that for the SL4 and SL303 distributions (ones I've
downloaded), but what about the SL301, 302 etc that I haven't downloaded? or
is it just enough to supply him with SL303?

I won't be downloading each distrib just to do this, but only provide him with
what I have, which is why I thought I'd ask at the source.

I'll look at supplying him SL4 and SL303 this weekend.

Thanks.

Michael.
