<p>When the user is installing FB on a plug system that doesn't have a video interface and the system needs some infomation about how to install.<br></p>

<blockquote style="BORDER-LEFT: #ccc 1px solid; MARGIN: 0px 0px 0px 0.8ex; PADDING-LEFT: 1ex" class="gmail_quote">The scenario I see is: The user download s the install to a USB stick. Plugs it into the device and turns it on. After 30 sek he/she points a browser to a local domain name and a simpel web interface guides the user through the installation. Then a script in the live environment could identify the hardware type and make some decisions for the user in advance (ex. if it is an embedded device with no attached storage then there is no reason for the installer to ask for a location to install the software). It could also be during this step that the user tells what services to install (but these can of course also be installed later).<br>
<br>I don't know how difficult this would be to setup but perhaps there should also be a option to run it as a live distro from a USB for system with very low internal storage.<br></blockquote><br></div>This sounds like a big mouthful to me. But sure, if you are up to the challenge, then go for it!<br>

<div>I don't have the time or skill right now to pull something like that off. It was more of a vision of user friendliness that would bring FB to a point where avage joe could use it.</div>
