Guys!
Now we have a similar bug as for aarch64 edition:
x86_64 netinstall image exceeds maximum size.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2009731
is: 735051776 bytes max: 734003200 bytes
Who will take care of this?
Maybe we should review the aarch64 issue again?
As of 2020-10-03 17:50 UTC
658M ./Fedora-Server-netinst-aarch64-35-20211003.n.0.iso 730M ./Fedora-Server-netinst-armhfp-35-20211003.n.0.iso 702M ./Fedora-Server-netinst-x86_64-35-20211003.n.0.iso
Once mounted the self reported sizes changed slightly
657M ./fedora_35_aarch64 728M ./fedora_35_armhfp 795M ./fedora
The install images (aka ./fedora_35_x86_64/images/install.img) are about the same size
du -sch ./fedora_35_image_* 1.6G ./fedora_35_image_aarch64 1.4G ./fedora_35_image_armhfp 1.5G ./fedora_35_image_x86_64
Looking inside the images, I am not sure why the arm and x86_64 are not compressing as well as the aarch64. The x86_64 and aarch64 have equal amounts of already compressed files in .xz format taking up a couple hundred megabytes. At this point, I am guessing the compression amount in the overall images are different OR some vagurie of file layouts is allowing one to be 'more compressible' than the other. Looking in there the biggest user of space is either linux-firmware or the locale archive.
Sorry I do not see an easy solution to this.
