Well, I might just work on this, then. What I have is a VERY succinct |
| 25 |
checklist which I made for my LUG when doing a presentation on Gentoo. |

I'll look into the quickinstall a bit more and see what I can do to |
| 28 |
help, as one of the main complaints we got at Linux World was about the |
| 29 |
install process. It ranged from "When are we going to see a graphical |
| 30 |
installer?" to "The installation documents are simply way too long to |
| 31 |
bother reading." |
