All,

In preparation for the motherboard change, I went to grab the latest netinstall-dual.iso and found the normal iso and then an 'archlinux-bootstrap' iso. Is the bootstrap iso the single architecture netinstall?

I've checked the install, beginner's and download, but only found reference to the pxe boot which can't be that big?
