Headline: better install options
Description: in debian installer you can chose a few standard setups. The default options are a bit crazy to me and also i miss alot of pkgs by default.
A bit of cleanup would be nice (iirc you can select database server for example, that ll give you my/maria)
It would be nice if you yould specify a code like "xxx/yyy" that would resolve to a public repo of predefined templates in which you could also define your own.
I for one, would define a server, workstation and laptop setup.
Server setup would includr sshd, screen, etc
- Shish2k 9y agoA site which allows you to create your own preseed files via GUI, and then gives you a tinyurl-type-code, seems like it should be a relatively easy CRUD app for someone who wants to get started contributing to debian :) Could be done third-party, but with official debian support we could get support into the installer to type "install di://g3dz" rather than "install preseed=http://mypersonaldomain.com/preseeds/g3dz" http://mypersonaldomain.com/preseeds/g3dz" (last time I was doing this for myself, typing the full URL of my preseed file into the bootloader was by far the most annoying part of the process :P)
