Yes the linux distros are all over the map, and it's not always
obvious how complete these ISOs really are. openSUSE has a 1.6G image
the isn't complete and downloads a bunch of additional stuff, where
their 4.3G image is a complete ISO. And the Endless ISO is 13G and is
very complete. But the point is that a 4GB installer size is not out
of the ordinary.
