Abstract
In a computing system, a computer-readable medium is for storing information. At least one computing device is for receiving at least one installation file and multiple installable files. The installation file includes at least one table for specifying an installation of a subset of the installable files. Also, the computing device is for identifying the subset in response to the table. Moreover, the computing device is for outputting the installation file and the identified subset of the installable files for storage by the computer-readable medium, such that less than all of the installable files are concurrently stored by the computer-readable medium.
