Then I think that It would have been even better if I could have used the Mandriva installer to install Fedora
Then I thought why couldn't we have 1 or 2 universal installers which are available on a separate CD/DVD which is pre loaded into the computer and does all the formatting and boot sector configuring, Then after the Universal installer is installed I Load my O/S of choice and the Universal installer will interface with the O/S DVD because on the O/S DVD there is a configuration file which tells the Universal Installer what to do.
I am putting this Idea out there in the hope that it is a good and novel idea but I would bet $,1000,000 on that somebody has thought of it before.
