system. These base packages are only those needed to configure a new machine,
update the system, and install additional packages from repositories.

### Flavor images

Each of the Void "flavor" images includes a full desktop environment, web
browser, and basic applications configured for that environment. The only
difference from the base images is the additional packages and services
installed.

The install process for each of the flavor images is the same as the base
images, except that you **must** select the `Local` source when installing. If
you select `Network` instead, the installer will download and install the latest
version of the base system, without any additional packages included on the live
image.

#### Comparison of flavor images

Here's a quick overview of the main components and applications included with
each flavor:

### Xfce image

`Network` instead, the installer will download and install the latest version of
the base system, without any additional packages included on the live image.
