Feature added by: Jeremy Thornton (leebrad) Feature #310563, revision 1 Title: Dashboard Install GUI openFATE: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important openSUSE-11.4: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Jeremy Thornton (leebrad) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Create a dashboard install on the DVD at the installation screen to help new users better understand the install options available to them. By this I mean where the selections come up to install Gnome, KDE, etc. that a dashboard listing replace it showing the Gnome, KDE, LXDE, XCFE, JeOS, Server, and Server/Server GUI as separate icons rather than a drop down list to select. Additionally, as the user scrolls across the icon it would give them a a summary description of the type of system it will install and possibly a screenshot or two to see if they will like it visually. Then as the install proceeds the user can customize the package selection later as is currently part of the system. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: Users for the most part naturally take the path of least resistance so dashboard will provide both choice and GUI ease of use for the user while offering something innovative to the installer that to date Ubuntu has not implement but is possibly on the verge especially with the intro of Meerkat. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310563
