has anyone

looked at Vector?

Home

based on slak.

for an ncruses based installer, very good installer and a fairly nice default ui ( kde )

a couple of issues, which become obvious with looking at thier forums.

defaults the xserver to 640 by 480 at 8 bit, even after installer configures xorg at a better resolution.

if you use a password for root that includes a space character, the password is truncated at the space.

as soon as the xconfig problem and a note during root password setting is done, they will have a good new linux user distro.

with having to lilo option to runlevel 1 at boot..to fix password, and having to hit console to get the xconfig repaired it can’t really be recommended yet for new to linux.
