The installer has gotten a lot of love recently from all around. Stay tuned for SalineOS 1.3 image builds. I have cooked up 904 lines of code for the installer mad scientist style (And, I am not done yet). Well technically I am writing a standalone program for the installer to call on much like it does GParted. Uses the Zenity toolkit so it will be transparent to the end user, it just adds more dialogs. By the time I am done the only things the installer won't have that other popular installers have is an "Erase and use entire disk" option and support for random partitions like opt and boot.

What else can I say except "awesome" !
