I had been looking at installing debian a couple of days ago and it
seems that this is a definite improvement! The only suggestion I have
is to add some more examples for the install.sh script. An example
that shows how to install debian on an already existing (empty)
partition would be great. From the documentation I gather that this
could be done by doing:
mount /dev/your-partition /mnt/debian
./install.sh debian apt fso configuration tasks kernel cleanup unmount
but I didn't test this (don't want it to start installing it on the
wrong partition/distroying my other installations).
