Description Dimitris Glezos 2007-03-13 16:57:53 UTC 
## Description of problem:

As discussed on -devel-list recently, we could rename the rescuecd iso into
something more generic (like minimal.iso) and market it (through the
Installation Guide) as a viable way to install Fedora (it's only 80MB instead of
650).

This bug report is just a reminder for the RelEng team. More info in the
following thread & email from Jesse:

Blocking FC7Target.

Fedora 7 test bugs should be filed against "devel", not against test1/2/3. This
isn't obvious, I know. Moving this report so it isn't lost.

This is a bulk message -- I apologize if this was actually meant to be targeted
against a different release. If so, please fix or let me know. Thanks.
Comment 2 Jesse Keating 2007-04-10 20:24:40 UTC 
I'm moving this to F8, too late for F7.
Comment 3 Dimitris Glezos 2007-08-01 22:24:55 UTC 
Better do it as early as possible, to have some media spread the word.
Comment 4 Jesse Keating 2007-10-03 14:08:52 UTC 
And we missed it for F8 too :/
Comment 5 Jesse Keating 2008-03-13 15:27:07 UTC 
This is being named 'netinst.iso' and put in the isos/ dir.  In images/ it'll
continue to have 'boot.iso' as the name for legacy reasons, but it does have
stage2 and will be suitable for rescue as well as installing.
Comment 6 Dimitris Glezos 2008-03-13 15:44:03 UTC 
Awesome, thanks Jesse. We can blog about it to spread the word.
