It is indeed; especially if the X interface is going to be just
*another* interface. It would be a great loss if the curses / text
interface disapperared or was not as good as the X one. I must admit
that I quite liked the potato curses installer much more than the Redhat
ones. It was very simple yet at the same time powerful esp if it had the
2.4 kernel.
It would be good to start everyone off with a choice of installer
interface to get them used to the range of choices available with most
other pieces of software in linux.
