The Gentoo Installer Project uses separate front and back ends, so the same installer has GTK and ncurses inerfaces. There was also talk of a web frontend at one point, which I though ws an excellent idea for installing to several machines on a network at the same time. The sysadmin could boot each machine from the CD then scuttle back to his dark corner to run all the installs from tabs in the same browser window. -- Neil Bothwick When you said you wanted to live in sin, I didn't know you meant "sloth"
