Do you think it's appropriate to keep it this way or should I change it? The reason why I do it this way is, that pungi doesn't pull optional comps packages in the media kit. Any idea how to work this around without having an extra script?
To date, all spins have been either live media, or a virt image that is quite similar. However you mention using pungi, which means you're making a more traditional install media, as opposed to live media. Basically you're just adjusting what packages are or are not on the DVD media we generate as part of a Fedora release?
... I'm confused why you'd do this as well. How many people install their servers from *media*? (That being said, it would be interesting to benchmark an image-based installation of @core, but given that anaconda won't run on that...)
I always install my own servers from "media". Often it's an ISO given to a VM, but it is always from an ISO. Never a pre-packaged image, etc.
Jon.
I also prefer media (or ISO). I suppose there will be still lot of people using media. We can see that after releasing spin from number of downloads.
