Graphical installer works, but aint pretty.
Friday I placed what I currently have for a Graphical installer onto the LiveCDs I have been making. It works but it sure is not pretty. I have also been able to build both 32 and 64Bit ISOs. Things are slowly progressing. The installer is written in PyQt4 and has a built in auto partitoning [...]

I have also weeded out the SELinux (Build)Requires in all the “core” packages and rebuilt the kernel (3.1.0) adding various drivers and turning off SELinux.

Unfortunately Yum works very slowly with PackageKit, so zif was written to manager and install packages with PackageKit’s Zif backend (intead of Yum’s) on RedHat based machines while not conflicting with Yum, so the Admin or [...]
