 Thanks for the clarification and yes, I fully agree with the intention.
 It just broke my "muscle memory" while re-installing my VMs from the CD 
 ISO which I usually use as the minimal base for virtual systems. So I 
 guess this is not worth the effort to implement some ugly workaround. 
 Instead I will switch my testing workflow to use the DVD image and will 
 be fine.
