The full install will contain all necessary updates.yes, but i am looking for a small image, under 210 MBThat's not what you asked! Ask the right question, and you'll get the right answer.As a *nix neophyte myself I'll guess he doesn't realize that "... looking for a small image, under 210 MB..." can be read multiple ways:A. the downloaded image is less than 210 MB. B. the image as installed to a local drive is less than 210 MB. C. a functional system occupies less than 210 MB on a local drive. D. the RAM required to load/run a installation is less than 210 MB.I would also suggest he give the motivation for asking the question - it would help flag unstated/unrecognized assumptions.
I suppose OP should consider a live CD or a business card CD.
