+- How can build installation mediums like provided by Arch Linux?
+
+- Just follow these next steps as root.
+- Note that mkarchroot is optional, but with it, will ensure to have
+  a clean enviroment for building isos.
+- This clean chroot, will take about 400MB (+130MB with all needed tools).
+- After make, max space usage is about 2GB.
+- In last step instead of just execute make, can be more selective:
+  Execute "make net-iso" or make "core-iso".
+  Do not execute make net-iso after make core-iso, otherwise net-iso
+  will be really a core-iso.
