Will be there an "install media" for the Workstation spin alongside the live one? right now the only available is for Fedora Server
No, the official installer for the Workstation is the live installer, and we hope to streamline it further for future Fedora Workstation releases. The idea being that the install
should just be about getting your initial image onto your system as fast as possible and then you customize the application selection through the Software 'appstore'
afterwards.
The 'Server' network install image is really about the same as the old netinst / minimal image. It can install all package groups, including 'minimal'. So, grab that one.
Will be there an "install media" for the Workstation spin alongside the live one? right now the only available is for Fedora Server
No, the primary media for Workstation is the live. If you want to do a non-live deployment of Workstation the official recommendation is to use the Server network install image, which (as noted above) is a bit of a misnomer, it's actually capable of installing all package sets as in previous releases.
(there's some messy background which resulted in this slightly odd state of affairs, it should be cleaner/clearer for F22 - the current idea is probably to have a properly generic netinst again. The Server one is *effectively* generic, but it's Server branded and lives in the Server tree, which looks a bit confusing.)
