Is it possible to get a list of the commands available on a Fedora iso without actually mounting the iso? What I'm looking for is the commands available from the Anaconda menu, not the commands that are installed to the disk.
Possible? Yes. Easy? No.
I think the definitive way would be to download the src.rpm and unpack it, and look at the code to see what commands are there.

You could also ask on the fedora anaconda mailing list. The developers probably have a list of the commands, or know them.
I haven't seen the interface since they switched from the hub and spoke format, but I assume there will be different commands depending on where you are in the install process. So, your question is not well difined. If you are asking the developers, they will probably want to know why you are asking, or what you are looking for in order to narrow it down.
So, I am not sure what the OP is asking for. But from the kickstart file(s), you can get the list of the rpms in an iso from:
https://pagure.io/fedora-kickstarts/tree/f37
Then you can use:
dnf repoquery -l rpm-name
and get the list of the files in each rpm.
This is a large number of rpms, and even larger number of files to go through.
Best wishes, Ranjan
Thanks for that. Quite a complex setup, tho not surprising.
What I wanted to be able to do is this. I 've downloaded the fedora 37 iso. I wan to know if it has gparted. How can I answer that without writing it to a thumb drive and booting?
