Oh, I thought the latter sentence would be self-evident to you so I
thought you must be asking about the former.

We have a 'installer' flag on media and media that do not provider
installers are supposed to have it 'false'. AFAIK the idea of that
flag was to inform applications that this media does not do
installation. However, now that you mentioned it, I see that we don't
set those on any of the live Fedora media. I think we should.
