Sure, a project around a good installer is quite useful that people not get frustrated already at the beginning in the trial of a new system. And doing a good installer is sure code based.
I started with Inferno at emu and this was still a quite easy way although the installation description was not good. I got it to work on my Mac after reading some more letters and descriptions. It was quite funny how I got it run. I found an italian installation description and use the google translator. But the google translator tell me: "How to install the hell" because Inferno is translated with HELL. And when the translator talk about Limbo (what is in english Limbus pre-hell), he said such things like: "This is the folder you find the pre-hell" But with this hell and pre-hell (limbus) translation I got the installation done ;-)
Sure, this is not the classical way what believe an operating system is installed. But if you install an "Inferno" you need expect everything, isn't it. After the installation I thought: Not so bad hell, now it's running. And pre-hell is already waiting to get inspected.
