Yes, that's it. We have auto-partitioning, all we would need is
partition-finding.

For me personally, I'm going to have to back away fom one or the other
of these threads/projects. Ease of Install is one, and Demo Disk is the
other. I choose Demo Disk, as I think it's an easier task technically,
but those who want to work on the Install process simplification, I will
be glad to assist with resources et al. Bob has already told me it's
important to him, too, so that's an assurance that he will help as
needed.
