Speaking for relatively ignorant beginners like myself, I believe
there'd be fewer complaints about the installation process if it had two
options, (other than choice of language)
1.. the current installation with all its frills.to satisfy those who
believe that it's a learning process and it'll do you good
2.. a simple installation that doesn't require any decisions except for
cfdisk but mainly installs enough apt or aptitude to access the CD set
and a printable menu (with descriptions and recommendations for
different configurations) of packages on the CDs.
Could option #2 be done with floppies?
