What do I lose for a bare bones install?

I am planning on installing Fedora from just one CD, and was wondering, what from the other CD's am I going to miss?

FC3 still requires disc 2 for a minimum install.

If you use a minimum install you'll miss anything that's not on the CD. You can check that out once you've burned the image since you'll be able to view the folders then. If you can download what you miss after that you won't miss anything in the end.

You can do a minimum install, then yum to get your DM and packages.
