It'd be nice to rebase this to F30 or even F31. F29 is not interesting anymore. A lot of the stuff in those images seems completely unnecessary: device-mapper, device-mapper-libs, dracut, cpio, glibc-all-langpacks, grubby, systemd-bootchart, systemd-udev. > So that might be one area to focus on — to make sure that these "from > scratch" installations don't drag unnecessary stuff. Yep, that sounds like a good start. I suspect that F30 might be already better in this regard.
