Has anyone given the Gentoo Graphical Installer a try, and if so what did
you think of it?

>>
http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/releng/installer/faq.xml

Will the gentoo installer configure my such and such hardware for me?

No. The installer will only do what is covered in the install guide. The
only thing that may be configured for you is xorg. When the LiveCD boots
into X, a xorg.conf is automatically generated. If you choose xorg-x11 (or
anything that depends on it) as an extra package to install,
the /etc/X11/xorg.conf from the LiveCD will be automatically copied into
your new install.
<<

I presume that the installer will auto-detect your hardware, provide you
with defaults, then allow you to modify those default values?

This is interesting too.

>>
What's wrong with the current installation method?

Absolutely nothing. The goal of the installer is to make installations
faster, not easier. The original intention was to make an installer for
doing automated deployments. While we still have this in mind, the end user
aspect took precedence (mainly because it's prettier).
<<

So does anyone find it easier because it is a Graphical Installer (even if
it's not their original intention)?

Regards,

M

Here's a review of it:

Seems it ain't quite ready for prime time yet.

I have tried it and it is OK.

I have done installs from stage 1 ... though most of the time I do a stage 3
install to save time (I did a stage 1 on an old pentium 166 laptop ... took
7 days to complete the base install !!!)

It is good to get a base installation setup without having to sit in front
of the console waiting to start the next phase of the install.
I can start it and walk away.
Though if you normally customize the install you will not use the GUI
Installer.


I would only recommend this to those experienced Gentoo users that are doing
multiple workstation installs and want to reduce time.

Ohhh I couldn't be doing with an install that took that long, if for no
other reason than the fans in the computer would keep me awake.

Kind of rules me out, given that I am not an 'experienced' linux user yet,
nor am I a Gentoo user. Having said that this distribution does interest
me, and I watch the developments with interest.

HEY ROY... why didn't you ever answer my question from the other thread
you coward. You were wrong so you simply ran away!!!! Where is your
proof that this is flatfish and that he is a racist homophobe.

Oh... that's right. It's okay for someone who posts "windoze" to call
people a racist or a homophobe and they don't need to offer proof at
all. Meanwhile, I do have proof do back my claim but a hypocrite like
isn't interested in facts are you Roy????

( From the "Linux? What's that? My own survey" thread )

-> You called Peter a racist and homophobe when there is absolutely
-> zero evidence for this. Sorry Larry, you are an arsehole.

Here's your evidence.

It is certainly an attempt to insult Lefty and me by labeling us as

->You truly are an arshole. Flatfish has shown itself to be racist and
->a homophobe on numerous occasions even when posting as flatfish.

I just showed you my proof. Where is your proof that Flatfish is a
racist and homophobe? I don't see any. I also don't see any proof that
this poster is Flatfish. The name I see is Thorsten Thigpen. Seems that

it's simply easier for your to label him as flatfish because you don't
like the content of his post. But I see zero proof that this person who

Peter just called a racist, liar and thief is flatfish. Or do you
simply assume guilty until proven innocent?

It is you Roy who's being the asshole here. Stop being a spineless
jelly-fish and grow a backbone. The only reason you're backing Peter is
because he happens to use the same OS as you. It has nothing to do with
the actual merits of this issue.

I'm looking for some sort of proof that you are not a hypocrite. The

you.

Sound like a good description of yourself... a huge, stinking, rotting
lump of flesh. Add in the word "hypocrite" and it's a perfect

Ask a different stupid question.

Gee Roy, you must have "accidently" snipped out the part where you
proved that you are a homophobe.

Are you sure that's really Roy, and not someone forging? The way his
messages are encoded is different from the way Roy's are usually encoded.

I would? How, exactly, would I be more careful about them, Richardson?

I'm positive it's not Roy, it's almost certainly the usual twat that
forges posters like this to wind up the unwary - Larry's fallen for it,
unfortunately.

I could care less about headers. Thy lying hypocrite is the **ROY**
that posted his weekly COLA stats. Those were not forged.


> Hint, just because it *says* it's Roy, doesn't make it so.

That's nice but it doesn't change the fact that the *original* COLA
stats were written by that lying hypocrite. That piece of shit labels
me as an 'arsehole' but refuses to hold himself and Trollman to the
same standard. He wants to call me an arsehole, I'll give him an
arsehole.

The other stuff most likely was written by a forger. A good night's
sleep is more than enough to cool me off. This morning I'm certainly
not the same raging drunk that I was last night. Thanks... I'm now
cooled off.

I installed RR4Linux using the CD install method of installing what was on
the CD, and it installed Gentoo just fine. However, I just don't like all
that compiling going on to install/update. I prefer a binary based system
like Kubuntu.
