installation of just ubuntu is very easy and good indeed. but creating an hdd image with partitions and different OS/*nix flavors is still pain. the bootsectors need to be setup, the Grub2 language is not exactly fun (at least for me). some simple "boot this USB stick, install Linux, install Windows", might be nice. at least for me.
- simonblack 12y agoThe only thing preventing "boot this USB stick, install Linux, install Windows" is that Microsoft doesn't allow that to happen. Secondly, there are too many questions that need answers which would prevent there being such a simple set of commands. Things like: 'how much space for Windows, and how much space for Linux on your hard drive(s)?' 'what order would you like the boot options to be in?' 'how many logical drives for Windows and how big?' 'how many partitions for Linux, how big, and where do you want to mount them?' and so on. But it never hurts to dream <grin>
