I would tend to believe that the content of a stage1 or stage2 would be
enough and just for the majors architectures (those that have a
stage1).. Anyways people will rebuild said packages once that's done,
right? That's not much for the mirrors.. Around 168 megs for the content
of a stage1 or 300 megs for the stage2..
