No, that's not it.  The minimal scripts attempt to conserve disk space by
installing the minimal system needed for a particular CPU.  Since the color
apple is considered a frill, it is not installed by this script.  If you are
installing on a hard disk, you probably want to use the normal scripts, not
the minimal ones.
