exactly, i looked at the list, and it lists ext3, ext4, xfs, jfs, etc... btrfs

i'm just thinking if we list some form of updates there by default, it could
mean faster install (no updates later on), and if something wasn't functional,
at release time, it could be "pushed" from repositories, so that it would work
well.
at the same time, i think we should try to minimize the amount of packages
needed to have working network, (or use the stuff that's in the stage tarballs
to get network, instead of first installing part of it)

how often do you have people installing ISO, then removing iso, to boot from
disk; only to find out that you have to put it in again to install a few
applications. granted the first reboot doesn't boot from the iso, but the
subsequent boots do use the iso...
otoh, indeed it could mean increased network traffic...
