Xen upgrade

I changed the production box from FC5beta1 to FC5 on Sunday. Now I can use normal Xen kernels. Previously the beta1 Xen snapshot had some kind of binary incompatability so I was forced to use only Fedora binary or hand compiled kernels to run the guests.
It went very well except I didn't know that Fedora minimal install required discs 1 and 2 now so I had to drive home in the middle of the upgrade. Kind of a hassle.

What the heck is wrong with a single disc minimal install?
