This will make the ISO unbootable on most media but for CD/DVD. By default, only important packages required for installing the distro are installed, and additional packages related to other things like the GUI are only downloaded, and installed in OOBE (post-installation). This is to reduce the build times of ISOs, reduce squashfs image size, and reduce the RAM overhead of the installation environment, as the file-table of the squashfs is smaller. However, this also makes repeated deployment much slower.
