Money is almost always the wrong motivation for doing anything. Do something you like, and treat the money as a nice side effect. That's why I write software and tend bars in my spare time.
It's a little early to be worrying about that -- and Linux survived for years with a terrible installation process. In any case, not only was the article about a preinstalled HURD, but I would guess that the only people who will be using it in the near future will neither be scared nor put off by tricky installation instructions.
