The current GUI is using dialog, but it is very limited. I really want to see a CUSTOM GUI. While I realize that dialog, gdialog, xdialog, kdialog, zenity, whiptail, etc, are very quick to program, I really want to get away from a debian style install. I think that Gentoo's installer should stick out among installers. Think of it this way, the installer is the first impression of our distrobution to a new user. We want to make something that is HOT, not something that is boring. Those are just my thoughts, what are yours? Nathaniel -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
