Before we submit this to the rel-eng ticket, we should come to a
consensus on exactly what we plan to ship in F21.
- From the Technical Specification[1]:
Fedora Server will run on and provide install media for i686, x86_64,
and armv7hl servers.
There will be two official install media for the Fedora Server:
* A network installation media (either a traditional netinst.iso or a
boot.fedoraproject.org style)
* A local installation media providing the default package set as well
as any featured roles that are meaningfully installed without a
network connection.
* The local installation media will be allowed a maximum size to fit
on a 4.0GB USB device.
* The local installation media can be pointed at network resources
to make available a larger package set.
We previously deferred the plans on what type of network-install media
we would support. I think it's probably time to bring that back up
now. The local installation media should be pretty straightforward.
- From previous discussions with Dennis Gilmore (CCed) it sounds to me
that our ISO-creation tools will build a network-install tree as a
side-effect, so if I understand correctly, we should be able to use
the classic netinst.iso or virt-install simply pointed at the Fedora
Server install tree as well. If this is the case, I'd suggest that we
should probably ship a netinst.iso that points at the Fedora Server tree.

I'd also like to see publicized kickstart (templates?) that will produce a
given role with minimal site customization. We can cover the tweaking
required in the book Zach has been considering.
