The script lists the RPMs installed on a running ALCASAR in order to create a dedicated ISO file.
|
|
|
13 |
Once the ISO is done, one can boot on it and install the OS normally. The ALCASAR tarball is available in /root folder.

The ISO image seems to be already as light as it can be. With all the necessary packages, it weighs around 800 Mo.
