By all rights, everything you should need should be on the first three 
disks.  You might want to take a look at the rest of the packages and see 
if you have everything for kde installed.  The fourth cd is mostly oddball 
packages that aren't absolutely necessary to run a system, just the 
niceties that aid in running a really good system.
