[Quantian-general] RE: Hard install of Quantian via CD-ROMs

[AeschereData at aol.com]

This may be a very green issue for the audience:
 
I am presently running an 8-node cluster based on Fedora 4 and openMosix. I  
am quite unhappy with Fedora's performance for this sort of setup and the 
needs  I have presently. I really need a system which is more specific to my needs 
 (e.g., has R, Octave, perl, and other software run for health sciences 
research,  large simulations, and other associated statistical tasks). In other 
words, a  setup without all the fat Fedora comes with. Which leads me to Quantian 
(and  it's Debian-based, thank you--which I should have done in the first 
place, I  know).
 
However, none of my nodes have DVD capability (alas, I'm on a budget  
here)--only CD-ROM. 
 
Have I missed something or am I truly unable to find Quantian on CD-ROMs?  
The websites the Quantian site takes me to appear to only offer DVDs. Does  
anyone have any info. about correctly burning Quantian to CD-ROMs? Is Quantian  
available on CD-ROMs and if so, where? I am planning on doing a hard install of  
Quantian.
 
I'd greatly appreciate any pointers here re: getting Quantian onto CD-ROMs  
correctly or finding where I may purchase such.
 
Respectfully,
Eric Lanes, Ph.D.
