The Everything ISO has the base Fedora "profile" that most variants use (which uses Btrfs). But it also doesn't select Fedora Server by default and is explicitly designed "for experts", The Fedora Server netinstall ISO uses the Fedora Server "profile" and will use the Fedora Server settings by default, including using LVM+XFS. Think of the Everything ISO as something that an Arch convert would use, while the Fedora Server netinstall ISO would be something that a sysadmin doing server deployments from a central repo mirror would use. -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! _______________________________________________ Anaconda-devel mailing list -- anaconda-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to anaconda-devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/anaconda-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
