Description Michael Necio 2016-10-14 02:44:47 UTC
In section 2.3.1 "Prepare the Installation Media" the various types of installation files are listed off and briefly described, but not mini-memstick.img

It is intuitive that mini-memstick.img is just like memstick.img with less stuff, but it is unclear what isn't included in the mini version that is in the main version.
