I just wanted to say that Instlux is awesome!

I just installed Ubuntu in my work's computer. The CD drive was busted, but I remembered there were other options. I never imagined it could be so easy.

-No hassle with faulty downloads and hash checking (which need a program)

-No hassle with burning an ISO file (many don't have this option and may end up burning a data CD, may need another program)

-No hassle with the BIOS (not terribly hard, unless it is hidden under Ctrl+Fsomething,, still people get nervous about this)


My opinion is that it should be more prominently featured in the Ubuntu download page, with a link to the page, instead of it buried in the wiki advance intallation options. (If you click in other installation options, you'll only see the free CD shipping).

Anyways, just my opinion.

We are also currently working on an Ubuntu installer for Windows that install Linux in a loopmounted drive so some people dont need to repartition their drive. There's a discussion going on at: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=305109&page=22


I'm gonna try this intlux thing now.
