Re: Ubuntu iso
You may want to look into the Network Installer: https://ubuntu.com/download/alternative-downloads Quoting from that page: > *The network installer lets you install Ubuntu over a network. It includes the minimal set of packages needed to start and the rest of the packages are downloaded over the network.* On Sun, Nov 19, 2023, 10:14 Jerry Geis wrote: > I am remastering the DVD.

Ubuntu iso
I am remastering the DVD. No issues there. Is there a way to remove the /pool directory on the ISO? When I do that, remaster, and use the iso to boot, I get errors - about not finding packages. I "desire" to install "everything" over the internet- I want to remove the /pool directory to save space... How can I do that and let the installer be happy ?
