Hello!

I'm asking if you have any special design plans for the new setup
utility, or at least some wishes or something :-)

This is how I could imagine a setup-installation:

* Be able to switch newbie and expert mode

--> newbie mode suggests a given partition-table and does the rest
    (see Corel Linux installation) -> A three-click installation :)
    if the newbie wants to fdisk himself, no problem, too.

--> semi-professional lets you fdisk and _choose_ between some
   different installations, e.g. questions, if the ports/X/KDE/GNOME
   stuff shall be installed.

--> expert mode is similar to the current way.

Alex
