No kidding.  :-)

It's an ongoing thread, but I doubt things will get clearer.

IMO, it's going to boil down to some trial & error testing
to see if works or not.

Personally, I really believe we can make daemons run off CD 
without spinning up the CD drive after they start. 

I guess I should move "dialog" to run off CD.  I'm not sure
about the setup script itself, or where to put it if I want 
to move it into $CDDIR....

And I'll also move CIPE to $CDDIR, and watch the light on 
my CD drive when I start a VPN.

Oh, there is another disadvantage to moving daemons to $CDDIR.
Right now we can umount /cdrom and eject it while DL is running.
That won't be possible with running programs/libraries on CD.
I can live with that restriction, but wanted to mention it.
