so you have already decided? I did think there was a discussion before proceding, but it looks like this change will already take its effect starting from the next beta. Don't you think we should ask first the community what they think about? It's non sense that in less than 24 hours you start the discussion on ubuntu-devel and you have already decided for everyone. I can't get it, sorry. Let me say that this is the worst idea ever proposed! I won't be able to use Ubuntu on my desktop anymore because I'm using a RAID 1 setup and I want to do a safe installation not using some workaround later after installation and risking to loose my data. Even more, alternate install CD is the only way for some PC to complete the installation. You can't imagine how many time I had to use alternate installer because ubiquity was freezing. I really cannot understand how you can propose something that will make Ubuntu worse than it is, We're supposed to make Ubuntu BETTER not worse.
