What I'd love is if we could get rid of the duplication between 'inner' and 'outer' layers on both installer and live images. In both cases, if you mount the ISO, you find a kinda 'outer layer' which has a kernel and initramfs, and a large image file, which when mounted, *also* contains a kernel and initramfs. So we have all the kernel modules and firmwares on the images twice, which seems...sad. -- Adam Williamson (he/him/his) Fedora QA Fedora Chat: @adamwill:fedora.im | Mastodon: @[email protected] https://www.happyassassin.net -- _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected] Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
