Minimal and client VM for jlink?

 Hi,

every source I found indicates that jlink makes it possible to create a
runtime image with a client, server, or minimal VM. However I can't make
it work for client and minimal:

	Error: Selected VM client doesn't exist.

I tried with the Oracle JDK 9 for Linux (9 and 9.0.1) and the reference
implementation[1]. It looks to me as if these JDKs only contain the
server VM. Is that and the absence of client and minimal documented
somewhere? Or am I just missing some flag? Is there a way to create an
image with the minimal VM?

 so long ... Nicolai
