Having dealt with all the problem reports on the forums and IRC channels, having something where you cannot bypass the proper installer sounds like a Good Thing (TM). Can we not remove the "Install" option completely and then what you have sounds ideal! > As someone who did test live distros and resorted to "just install" after being satisfied , I think that the "install" button is useful. Now... if that means "switch to the stock installer" or "dump the content of removable media (1) to fixed media (2)" might be open for debate. But not needing to download and write to USB/DVD yet another iso is a win, from my point of view. As long as it actually works. As a side note wrt the simple CDROM taking 500 MB: pretty please, stop caring if the images fit on a CD (that is, if you still do that ). I do not even remember when was the last time I wrote an iso to a CD-R as opposed to DVD-R. Everybody uses USB sticks nowadays and it's damn hard to find one smaller than 2 GB (1) where removable media is in {CD, DVD, USB stick} (2) where fixed media is in {USB stick, HDD, nvme, etc} wolfy
