It seems to me that at most it is a question of adding a tickbox that says "Simplified installation", and amending the installation process to whatever we think is simple. We already have a tickbox for "automatic configuration" that works in a similar way.
No, no, and one more no.
Cause a beginner doesn't know that this simplified installation mode is good for beginners. I consider it also bad from the psycho motivation. Who is willing to be a beginner? As soon as you decided to go the expert way and then something goes wrong it's much easier to understand. For a person used to use Linux it's much, much easiert to decide against the default workflow.
Yes, yes and one more yes. :-) We're talking about two different things - you seem to be talking about changing the default, I'm _only_ proposing adding another installation flow. I agree that changing the default is going to be an uphill struggle (I'll leave that to you) and not in line with our strategy, but offering a simplified installation path is perfectly possible. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (5.3°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
