Description:
I would like to see the same installation flexibility for SUSE as is
available for Ubuntu.
SUSE uses a wonderfully polished installer, however, the following
features are either missing or I am not informed on how to use the
following, which I think would be a great addition to SUSE distro and
suse studio for the average or even small business user.
1. Install option as a Windows Application like Ubuntu; and,
2. Install easily onto a USB drive using utilities like Ubuntu and
Fedora provide;
3. Create the SUSE Studio to look like the installer so that it easier
to choose packages as if you were actually installing SUSE and then add
the additional customizations needed.
4. Provide a backup utility like remastersys that works on SUSE
providing a rebuild of a live cd for backup or distribution to friends,
family, or colleagues.
I think these 4 implementations would increase the flexibility of SUSE
installations, customization, and distribution.
