For whatever reason, media building in CentOS 8 has suffered.  There has been no live media (and RHEL doesn't have it, right?)... and the minimal media has been somewhat broken for some time.  Use the boot or the DVD.  boot is for net installs.  The minimal from 8.2 was ~1.6GB... so it wasn't really minimal.  They have had trouble building minimal media... so I guess that's why it was dropped in 8.3.

Is someone working on it?  I don't know.

TYL,
