! 13: Anaconda as a concept manages the installation and upgrade software
! 14: associated with a RedHat Linux installation. Documentation on customizing
! 15: this approach was scarce and minimal. New releases of anaconda have been
! 16: based off of a presumed "Rawhide" developmental release of RedHat Linux.
! 17: <P>
! 18: Since I am developing this for the "Zoot" runtime release of RedHat Linux,
! 19: my approach involved tinkering around with the source code specific
! 20: to Zoot. 8000+ lines of Python/Tk to be exact (not to mention the
! 21: index-hashing synchronization commands and other "special formulae" associated
! 22: with generating the iso9660 CD file image).
! 23: <P>
! 24: This document is meant as an informal record regarding my work.
! 25: Hopefully this allows for quicker development of installation
! 26: programs with successive releases of Linux even though the anaconda concept
! 27: is rapidly evolving in the software development community it seems.
