The InstallCD is only usable for installations. What are you needing to use python for exactly?

(im playing around with the bootcd for creating "kickstart" like installation over tftp &dhcp, etc) but, why i python installed? when it is not usabe? i think this makes no sense... if it is a dependency of another program, i think "the another program" also wont work (if this prog trys to do something with his python bindings, rigth?) cheers
There's nothing python-related on the InstallCD. The only reason it is still on the CD is because portage is used to build the CD via catalyst, and portage requires python. Because of this neither portage nor python will unmerge cleanly from the InstallCD, hence why both are still there. If you want to use a working environment, use the LiveCD, not the InstallCD.

Funny enough, even though this was a WONTFIX it got fixed thanks to mirrorselect being ported to python from bash. Enjoy. ;]
