Alright, you seriously need to quit this sort of FUD.  The Installer
really doesn't make it that much easier to install, it simply makes it
quicker.  If you don't believe me, try following gli-bugs on bugzilla or
hanging out in #gentoo-installer for a while.  Trying to blame one
user's refusal to read documentation on a project that you seem to know
little about does nothing to serve Gentoo.
