[08:34] <tomreyn> i don't remember how to make ubottu tell us, so here's a copy and paste from ubottu.com for !minimal: Added by LjL (Date: 2006-12-15 03:19:53), Last edited by IdleOne (Date: 2013-05-23 20:33:55), Requested 2606 times

 The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want.  The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[08:39] <JackFrost> !-minimal

[08:41] <tomreyn> oh, minus it was, thanks JackFrost
[08:41] <JackFrost> Sure thing!

[08:42] <tomreyn> merci beaucoup
[08:42] <JackFrost> Sad to see it go.
[08:43] <tomreyn> it was handy
[08:43] <JackFrost> Very, now you have to boot something live, partition, debootstrap, and do the whole setup manually. :(
[08:44] <tomreyn> or hope i did not lie when i copyied the claims that the 'new' server installer covers all of mini.iso's use cases
[08:45] <JackFrost> I had it in pxe, the small size would be viable there.
[08:45] <JackFrost> But yeah that should mostly cover it.
[08:45] <tomreyn> oh in ipxe, on the firmware?
[08:46] <JackFrost> No, I have a PXE server set up so I have multiple boot options.
[08:46] <tomreyn> i see, i guess this can work with the new one, too
[08:52] <JackFrost> tftp, nooooo.
[08:52] <tomreyn> :)
[08:55] <tomreyn> the uefi defines http boot, which some of the implementations haven't disabled, yet. it's convenient to use, and feels like it should not exist.
[08:55] <tomreyn> (just because no implementation will ever get it right, and secure)
[08:56] <tomreyn> anyways, i'm pretty much OT
[08:56] <JackFrost> We went a bit, yeah. :)
