In order to make the booted system consistent with other images use the generic_base_pkgset on Fedora. On RHEL 9 and 10 move the qcow2 packageset to its own section, 'qcow2_base_pkgset' and use that for qcow2 and pxe-tar-xz. This results in a rootfs that is around 175-200MB larger but include that standard set of tools.

IDK I just think qcow2 is not the best starting point for PXE type. We can add easily stuff that simply does not belong in there. I actually think PXE should be separate, just add @core that should be enough. Also all those excludes are probably not relevant? Only git blame knows, have you reviewed these?
Having said all that, you are not making it worse too much, we are missing some basic tools like sudo on the PXE image, so yeah. 🤷🏻
