I honestly don't recall, but I don't believe there's any duplication from one to
another. That would confuse the installer because the package listing is in the
TRANS.TBL file. I would guess that they're arranged based upon the dependencies,
and what has to be installed first and what can't be installed until they're
satisfied. IIRC, the minimal install doesn't require anything from disc 3, but
the workstation, server, development, and everything installs do. I don't have
any disks with me to look at, but you can tell by listing the /redhat/RPMS
directory to a file for each and doing a diff on the files.
