Who you calling grandma! :)
Ahh, reading the Makefile to find switches you need or don't; documentation, ain't nobody got time for README, yah I'll take the default switches; also moving where the binary will be installed, sometimes an obscure library will not be in the path, have to find it, oops, wrong version, upgrade lib, oops, breaks backward dependency of something else, revert, put new lib in different place, mod path, make clean ... First time I used yum, I thought, my God, my barbarian life!
Also, kernel patching roll-back! If you put in a kernel patch that broke stuff, go get the LiveCD and make some coffee and call your spouse, you gonna be there a while.
Network booting, that too. I mean, is network booting 10x local boot? I can't say, but you're not going to make a data center filled with tens of thousands of nodes if you can't network boot.
