## Semplice Linstaller - alternative for refracta-installer ?

Mon Nov 04, 2013 1:23 am

A user on the solydxk forum mentioned Linstaller as an alternative for the current live-installer.
I downloaded Semplice, and ran the installer...and I quite like it.
cause this installer dont have fancy graphical stuff and easy to use
It has the ability to auto-partition and more
its posible adapt this installer? works whit refracta snapshot?
Does anybody know this OS, and installer, and what did you think of it?
For those that do not know, here's a slideshow, and the link to Semplice's site:

Adapting it would not be so easy - it's written in python, which I don't know. It looks a lot like the debian installer, or maybe the ubuntu installer. Some of the steps in it are ones I want to avoid and are the reason I got involved with writing the refracta installer.
Refractainstaller is very simple. If you want refracta installed in the first partition of the first hard drive and the bootloader in the mbr of that drive, use the simple install. If you want anything else, use expert install and ignore any options you don't want or don't understand. I sometimes use the expert install with no options checked, just because it gives me the ability to choose which drive, partition and filesystem type to use.
I'm not familiar with semplice, and I don't know if the installer would work on refracta. If you try it, please let us know the result.
