You're right. Following the Mac philosophy, the user needs to be able to go to a single, easily found, place, and double click on an icon or filename, and the file should download then install itself. In fact, if there was a double-click installation of Ubuntu 12 and LinuxCNC that would be even better (but a few extra clicks or a bit of keyboarding for entry of personal or configuration details during installation would be acceptable). Anything more than that, and I'm guessing the average non-guru user will pass it by and find some other package that says it installs easily.
