Personally I dislike very much Ubuntu-like installs ( nothing is displayed about > what is going on ) and I never use it ( in spite of I am installing each release of it ) . Another way to promote FreeBSD - show Solaris first. Yesterday just to look downloaded from oracle. Incredibly slow, no idea what's going on not only while installing but when trying to do anything and understand /etc/ hierarchy. incredible slow mess - this is "the most advanced unix" from Oracle. I prefer "less advanced" FreeBSD
