Not having an ISO is not really an issue. After all CD drives are something |
11 |
fairly modern :D... |

Joking aside, I can imagine architectures where it's preferable to set up a |
14 |
stage directly from a running maintenance system (maybs s390???). Also, none |
15 |
of my arm gadgets comes with a CD drive, so I had to e.g. prepare the stage on |
16 |
a memory card with another box. |

That said, blindly stabilizing more and more stuff on dying arches certainly |
19 |
is a waste of time. |
