10 |

| The installer should detect as much as possible, provide language |

| network, and X config. |

Network and X config can be done after installation, which is not what |
16 |
you/we want as mentioned above :) |
17 |
X config, at least, will need to be done automaticly during boot before |
18 |
the installer is started anyway.. |

22 |

23 |

24 |
QInGen, once I remove configuration things, will ask minimal number of |
25 |
questions... I'm not sure what to do with the licensing stuff yet |
26 |
though. Currently, it requires the user to check the checkbox next to |
27 |
every license (displaying them when clicked on). What do we legally need |
28 |
as far as a license agreement dialog? |
