+<PRE>i did a network install
+
+and choose 'custom', then deselected everything, pressed next
+
+i got to the next menu of installation and left these to default:
+
+ - no X
+ - no suggestions
+ - basic doc still on
+ - truly minimal was off
+
+but, i ended up with x libraries, fonts, etc...
+
+so i dug a bit deeper as to why and looked at the ddebug.log file:
+
+afaict dracut seems to require plymouth, and mageia-gfxboot-theme seems to be
+there no matter what option i choose from the summary, it seems it was already
+installed before the summary.
+
+
+thing is, without a full kickstart (which i don't want to, i'd like to keep
+doing partitioning manually, but kickstart seems not to do the interactive
+requests), i can't really make a minimal system to begin with...
+
+for this release, if at all possible, i'd still like to get a bit smaller for
+minimal setups, and like to present a nongraphic grub by default when X is
+unselected, and also have no need for gfxboot or plymouth when i don't have a
+graphic grub (even though this isn't the same)
+
+furthermore, if i'm installing without X the default runlevel target seems to
+still be the graphic one, and not the multi-user one...
+
+perhaps it's possible to have this as alternatives or something? which could
+be set by the CAT_X thingie? one installing one package and the other
+installing the other package?
