It sure makes sense ! |
22 |
You mean a web page with options per choise pointing to a section when |
23 |
that choise is made (consolidate existing install installs) |
24 |
|
25 |
|
26 |
example : |
27 |
|
28 |
Select the arch do you want to install gentoo on : |
29 |
[X]x86 []arm []x86_64 |
30 |
|
31 |
- --> go to url of handbook for x86 |
32 |
|
33 |
Select a iso: |
34 |
[X]base []full |
35 |
|
36 |
- --> go to url where mirrors can be selected for x86 and an explenation |
37 |
how to write the iso |
38 |
|
39 |
|
40 |
You selected x86-base-iso. Select which stage you want to start the |
41 |
installation : |
42 |
[]stage1 []stage2 [X]stage3 |
43 |
|
44 |
- --> go to url of handbook for stage3_install |
45 |
|
46 |
etc etc .. |
47 |
|
48 |
That way you have en entire tree of diffirent ways to install but not |
49 |
the clutter of the other options because every select you do excludes |
50 |
sections of unneeded other install_documents. Kind of preventing the |
51 |
cluttering by _choise_. |
52 |
|
53 |
Maybe it's a daft implementation of your proposal ? |
