Well, I was thinking an ncurses-style shell interface. If it crashed, that could be a kernel panic (bluescreen...whatever). It would be simple enough that it probably wouldn't crash.
But, who knows
If it's a kernel panic then I could see having a shell come up to do this.
War, I'm really hoping they're not claiming the 15-minute install is in right now. It took about an hour+15 to install it.... at least, I think the setup is done now.
No, according to them on some machines it should be 40-50 minutes (Per a review as well)
Speeds may vary from Machine to Machine. The installer has been staged but not revamped as they said yet.
