Guys,

This should really be reverted to sysinstall until the new installer is at least in a state where it consistently works... the most important part of a new users experience is the installer and the few new installs I have done lately I've just installed 8.2 and upgraded from there as the new installer is terribly buggy.

Hi,

I am highly against reverting. Old installer is not GPT aware and in fact is unmaintained for a very long time.

About ftp - its probably needs to be handled better, but most of the user i think using cd/dvd image, so it is not an issue. And new installer is written on shell, so i think its better to fix broken parts then to revert it to outdated and unmaintained code.

P.S. i personally had no problems with a new installer, used it from DVD.
