But I reserve the right to be wrong, and this is not legal advice, and I'm not willing to be a test case, either. However, again, the aggregate work of the installable ISO is not under the GPL, and so you would want to check with your own counsel as to the advisability of redistributing the installable ISO. As the GPL states clearly: "In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.
