Summary0000112: Closest Mirror while installing
DescriptionHi,

It would be great if the installation source were the closest mirror, like in CentOS 8.
We could install the latest version of the OS with all the patches in a fresh install.

Thanks

Unfortunately it's not possible without rebuilding the ISO images.
aarch64 version was released a bit later and includes this feature.
x86_64 will have to wait for 8.5 I believe or some emergency rebuild.
