I second that motion. It's not the easiest installer in the
world, nor the easiest to understand, and definitely not the most
forgiving, but if it was, we'd be using microsoft linux. (shutter) Eww,
that's a scary thought. :) The setup software in some ways assumes that
you already know kinda what you're doing. When I was a greenhorn to Fbsd
that was the one program I dreaded getting into. Now there are times I'd
rather use it than figure out how to do it by hand at the command prompt.
Considering you're using such a powerful OS that's not for
computer newbies, I guess the installer kinda follows that
pattern. Powerful, yet not oversimplified.
