I have just created the first try at the mini cd. It will be part of the
next sync. 

It is about 112 MB and will fit nicely on a mini-cd (180). It includes
the base install (Not even openssh included), and is tested to work
without customizing the package selection (5-step install). 

I will later enhance it to support installing the whole system with the
help of networked mirrors. This, however, does not yet work, although
trying it will probably not break anything but end up with the same
system as a default install.

On monday I will also look into creating a Credit Card Size install CD 
for network installs only. I expect that one to be less than 30MB.

As with the main ISO, both the smaller ISOs can be used as base for
PXE-installs, so anyone depending on PXE stuff might possibly save some
time by downloading the smaller ones.



Hope this gives you what you want.
