What is Everything boot? What is the difference between Everything boot
and, in example, Workstation boot?
It's a generic network install image - 'generic' in the sense sgallagh
explained, it doesn't use any Fedora flavor-specific configuration
(like Server or Workstation), so it gets all the anaconda defaults.
The other network install images use the configuration for the flavor
they come from - Server, Workstation and Cloud. So the Server one
defaults to XFS partitions, for instance. They also have Flavor
branding.
Each of them lets you install any package set; there was an idea a
while ago that the Server netinst would only let you install the Server
packages, but no-one was super keen on that.
The Everything netinst is the one we show most prominently on the
download page, I think. The others are a bit hidden.
FWIW, I'd say the most 'important' images to test are the Workstation
live, Server DVD, Everything boot and KDE live.
