Progeny Announces Graphical Installer for Debian Woody

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the gui-but-not-sticky dept.

jdaily writes "In light of recent negative reviews of Debian in which the installer was roundly criticized, this announcement may have particular timeliness and relevance: Progeny has made available an i386 Debian 3.0 (woody) installer image based on PGI, the Progeny Graphical Installer. This is available at Progeny's free software archive." I've installed Debian so many times that I've just learned to cope with the installer, but this is a much needed boost.

      Because it's offtopic. It doesn't have anything to do with the Debian graphical installer.

      And no, I don't care if you can't understand what it really means.
