It actually dumps the ext4 image on the drive and then resizes it to

It would be nice to get rid of the embedded ext4 image now that squashfs
supports special files and extended attributes (needed for selinuix labels),
but there are some other roadblocks that will block that change for the near
future.
Where is this issue being tracked?

much memory will anaconda require to install Fedora 16?
Anaconda requires 768MB, and more (=1GB) if there is no swap partition.
I'd love to see reduced memory requirements for anaconda in F16.
Use the installer that is available on a Live spin, instead of using
anaconda. Being live
. Moving it into the initrd resolved a lot of
outstanding issues with Anaconda, and removed a lot of duplicate code that was
difficult to maintain.
There was a jump in memory requirements, as now all of that content was loaded
into memory, and there are potential fixes being worked on. However
Hello,
what about using the Text Mode for the install? [1]
According to the release notes it only needs 256MB of RAM so I think it
should be feasible, or? [2]
Are there anything preventing the usage of the textmode?
Best regards,

This reduces the memory requirements by 128MB:
Fedora-15-i686-Live
Would it be possible to create a custom image that just does a minimal (possibly
text-based) install? This might reduce memory requirements even more, and extra
packages could be added later - the DVD could be used as a repo if bandwidth is
an issue.
