+</I>&gt;<i> Therefor I'd like to suggest that the installer would function like a
+</I>&gt;<i> questionaire-form.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> For instance:
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Do you intend to install Mageia on a:
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> 1. Desktop.
+</I>&gt;<i> 2. Laptop.
+</I>&gt;<i> 3. Mobile
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> What arch does your CPU have?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> 1. i586.
+</I>&gt;<i> 2. x86_64
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> And so on..........................to tailor-make the installation
+</I>&gt;<i> after what he/she wants it to be like.
+</I>&gt;<i> I know it would take some time to finish it, but the result will be in
+</I>&gt;<i> their favour.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+</I>&gt;<i> ----------------------------------------
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> When it comes to the development of the unstable version, why not do
+</I>&gt;<i> nightly build-isos?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> That would help users to install Mageia by NOT using the netboot-iso
+</I>&gt;<i> or by upgrading from the stable which isn't recommended today &amp; to see
+</I>&gt;<i> where there are any issues. Sometimes the netboot-iso won't install
+</I>&gt;<i> 'cause the mirror isn't answering properly.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> /Kristoffer
+</I>
+imo, this kind of thing is better, if one would like to make a custom iso, in
+a webapplication project:
+
+you fill in a couple of questionaires; and you see the total estimated size of
+the iso file. afterwards there could even be manual package selection.
+
+and press submit and you get an iso file to download.
+
+for the installer, newbies don't want any questions at all; they would like to
+prefer everything just installs and works.
+
+even the DE choice is bordering on the &quot;maybe too far&quot;. allthough i would
+allow it, since it gives an example look.
+
+the group selection of &quot;office, docs, devel, gaming, servers, ...&quot; is enough,
+imo.
