A few probably aren't needed. eject is used by the installer, though. ;)
If you don't install them all, I'd be interested to see the output of 
'rpm -Va > depchk.out' While the machine may boot, you might find some 
problems via the above command. If we can remove anything without 
crippling functionality or causing a dependency failure, I'll be happy to 
remove it from the list.

Did you download the ne.o module for the new kernel? It occurs to me that 
I didn't update the modules on disk2 for the new kernel. It will be fixed 
in the next release. Sorry about that, my mistake.
