Live OS would allow users to install using a touch keyboard which would be huge

And they could test drive before committing to a full install

Expectations have always been a live USB stuck is not the same as an actual install

That
's true
. There certainly hasn
't been a demand for one

but for that
, iso size needs to drop to less than 200mb

There is an option to do net installs
, but anaconda does not have retries built in when using that method
.

8/6/24, 11:33 AM
We are already using a patched anaconda
, might be trivial to implement that
? Not really sure on the details of it
