#17055: auto-calculate anyboot media size
---------------------------------+-----------------------------
 Reporter:  kallisti5            |       Owner:  bonefish

 Priority:  low                  |   Milestone:  Unscheduled
Component:  Build System         |     Version:  R1/Development
 Keywords:  media build anyboot  |  Blocked By:

---------------------------------+-----------------------------
 During the R1/beta3 release cycle, I had to keep slowly bumping up the
 media size due to a growing set of packages. (hrev55219)

 * Setting the image size too small, and haiku fails to build.
 * Setting the image size too big, and the ISO wastes a lot of space to
 download. (10MiB, 20MiB, etc * every uncompressed download)

 We should really auto-calculate the media size (for ISO/anyboot) and add a
 fixed overhead.
