Here is some commands to check for large files so you can verify that they are needed or maybe they can be removed and help reduce the size of your iso.

To list files larger than 10M:
find / -type f -size +10000k -exec ls -lh {} \; | awk '{ print $8 ": " $5 }'

To list files larger than 100M:
find / -type f -size +100000k -exec ls -lh {} \; | awk '{ print $8 ": " $5 }'

If they are in  /home and you are using dist mode, you can ignore them.

To check just in the directory you are in and those under it:
find . -type f -size +10000k -exec ls -lh {} \; | awk '{ print $8 ": " $5 }'

I have spent considerable time creating remastersys and the documentation and offer it up for free.

As a courtesy to me, please read the documentation here and on the website before posting any questions.
