Now that cooker is in full development, there are some ergonomic and 
cosmetic remarks :

At the installation, the menus are not so convenient :
   - to choose a user : you have to enter name, nickname and password, 
the icon and then type "accept" or terminate.

First, the user icon is not very convenient to choose : you click on the 
button to make appear the next one, but you cannot go back. Two arrows 
around the button would be nice to make them appear forward and 
backward. Even better, a horizontal scroll list with all icons would be 
nice.

Second, you have to accept a user, and terminate when all is finished. 
The word "terminate" in itself is a little confusing. That would be more 
logical if there was a window with entered users (instead of just 
appearing on top of the window, separated with commas), with three 
buttons : new, edit and delete. You could then control better the 
entered data for each user and go back if you made an error. Then a 
button "done" or "next" or "finished" would validate the entries.

 - the lilo entries : same problem than for the second point of choosing 
a user : you have to modify an entry to delete it. A window with all 
entries (and not a one-line scroll list) would be convenient, with three 
buttons : new, edit, delete. Moreover, the default starting mode could 
be choosen with radio buttons next to each entry name, instead of having 
to "edit" to check the "default" starting entry. Another nice thing 
would be arrows that would conveniently change the order of the lilo 
entries in the list.

These are just suggestions, based on my experience, I do not say I do 
know what is the best for interface. But I think they could be improved.
The general aesthetic of the installer itself could be a little improved.
