Installation issues / Is it necessary to take over my sources.list?
March 30, 2007, 04:33:54 PM
Hi,

I am in the middle of install and noticed it overwrote my sources.list. Is this necessary? No wonder it needs a clean edgy install.

Feature requests & roadmap / Integrated distro/install cd
March 30, 2007, 05:31:47 AM
Hi,

Can't wait to try this out (have to wait until end of month to get the bandwidth). In the meantime, I have noticed a lot of comments on various forums about the complexity of the install.

One thought I had was an integrated install cd containing all the required distro and MCE files. The reconstructor project (http://reconstructor.aperantis.com/) provides a tool that can be used to craft custom derivatives of Ubuntu 6.10 with minimal effort. It has already been used to create Ubuntu Ultimate Edition (http://ubuntusoftware.info/Ubuntu_Ultimate_1.3/).

Using this kind of tool would allow you to distribute a single cd image which would handle all setup activities.

What do people think?
