Assume Henri is too young      to remember first graphical installer.

Thank you! I'm 60 this year :-) and using FreeBSD since 2.1. Xenix since 88 IIRC. My point is that a graphical installer may be usefull, that's all.


Though a new graphical installer may be very nice as an option,
let it not ever be the only way: Remember blind installers,
non VESA supported consoles, non X recognised chips, serial line
controlled installs, & non intel/AMD platforms with broken graphics terminal support. (Sparc maybe ? more later ?)
