Also, your description of "unwanted" is too vague and may well be ill defined. For examle "ls", which is part of the core tools, is not necessary for the kernel to boot and run - but without it, you are pretty much crippled. Ditto with ps. So you need to dig deeper into understanding what you mean by the most basic set of packages. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
