minus-squareProgrammer BelchlinkfedilinkEnglish0•1 year agoI think you could mount the iso and manually delete the packages you dont want. Mounting an iso is as easy as # mount -o loop /path/to/iso /path/to/mountpoint You can also chroot into it while it is mounted: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Chroot Disclaimer, I am not sure if deleting files inside the iso makes it weight less.

minus-square@PoolloverNathan@programming.devlinkfedilink0•edit-21 year agoYou’d likely need to reshrink the partition, then truncate the ISO to fit.

I might try this for the next install, thank you!

This is another good looking solution!
