minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink15•1 year agoMaybe build your own iso that doesn’t include the things you won’t use?
minus-squareSéra BalázsOPlinkfedilink12•1 year agoYes, but I don’t know how to do that. I might do some research on it tho.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink3•1 year agoI don’t know either, sorry… but there’s obviously a way. 🤣 If you find a good howto share a link.

Mounting an iso is as easy as # mount -o loop /path/to/iso /path/to/mountpoint You can also chroot into it while it is mounted: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Chroot Disclaimer, I am not sure if deleting files inside the iso makes it weight less.

I might try this for the next install, thank you!

This is another good looking solution!
