Hi
well, with installing there is another point:
because things like partitioning came up...
most first time linux installs are dual boot, witch makes it more
complicated...wereas with a stand alone install things like automatic
partioning are/would be possible and setting up bootloaders and the like
has become quite easy (d-i most of the time does it correctly be itself
(the last time i had problems was due to a setup with serial console and
lvm and linux sw raid which is a quite unlikely setup for a causual pc
users...)
yours
