This post is prompted by several things:
1. First time users of the Debian installer trying to describe
their observed symptoms.
2. Over five decades dealing with end-users in situations ranging from
rejecting concrete for a new sidewalk to convincing to a bio-chem
grad student that a NMR analysis required a larger sample than
required for a mass spectrometer.
3. Things I did as a neophyte TV tech in 1962 ;{
QUESTION
Is there *ANY* difference between a "default installation procedure" and
an "expert install" where the response to all screens is pressing "Enter"?
My suggestion would be for the first time user employ "Expert" mode
*AND* record a one line description of the result for *EACH" press of
the Enter key.
I believe this would have two benefits:
1. Slow down the user so he actually perceives what he observes.
2. Tell the reader what happened in a less ambiguous way.
Comments?
