Again, this is just for ubuntu, and not a decision for any flavors. As far as I know, no flavors have committed to dropping the alternate cd's. This transition will occur with the next milestone, which is Beta 1. As part of this, we'll need to migrate the alternate testcases and add new testcases in support of the new features in ubiquity. Thanks! so you have already decided? I did think there was a discussion before proceding, but it looks like this change will already take its effect starting from the next beta. Don't you think we should ask first the community what they think about? It's non sense that in less than 24 hours you start the discussion on ubuntu-devel and you have already decided for everyone. I can't get it, sorry. Let me say that this is the worst idea ever proposed! I won't be able to use Ubuntu on my desktop anymore because I'm using a RAID 1 setup and I want to do a safe installation not using some workaround later after installation and risking to loose my data. Even more, alternate install CD is the only way for some PC to complete the installation. You can't imagine how many time I had to use alternate installer because ubiquity was freezing. I really cannot understand how you can propose something that will make Ubuntu worse than it is, We're supposed to make Ubuntu BETTER not worse.

If you remember back to UDS, the original idea as discussed was that no functionality would be lost (aka, the live cd would get support for everything the alternate cd could do). They've come close, but RAID support didn't quite happen. Note that If the alternates are dropped for ubuntu, going forward, if you wish to install with RAID (or simply want to use an alternative installer) you still have the option of using the netboot or mini iso. Nicholas Ubuntu is dropping something that people love, see: http://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/yydbp/ubuntu_alternate_cds_could_be_dropped_for_1210/ In favor of something that Ubuntu created. Have I seen this before? Never mind that some percentage of people can't use the Desktop installer.

The graphical installer really shouldn't be locking up on 512MB, it should be erroring out instead. The problem is, the lockups aren't consistent, unless you use the manual partitioning.
