How about moving rootfiles to Core then?
What is supposed to be the difference between Core and Base?

Core is the absolute minimal subset.  You'll get to a login prompt with
a shell and a root password.  Base is a far more reasonable minimal
subset that will even let you install packages afterwards ;-)

I mentioned this elsewhere, but perhaps a name change from "core" should be made to avoid confusion with "Fedora Core". My suggestion was "base operating sytem", maybe "minimal operating system", or even "minimal boot environment" :) And "base" could become "minimal installer/developer environment"... still thinking... but the idea to suggest that it isn't for normal users ;)
