I would also add that writing an easy to use installer that does things for you is *hard*. Look at all the 
distros that have this, Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora etc. I am sure you would not be hard pressed to find a bug in 
doing something slightly non-standard, and then there are the different types of system, legacy BIOS, EFI, 
etc.
