Hi Atiq,<br>
<br>
tommorrrow at: 19:00 CET the next OI-Maintainer Meetup takes place,<br>
you are hereby invited to this meeting, I'm currently re-writing a
new<br>
text-based installer for OI, I allready took over responsibility for
the<br>
SPARC part of this new installer, and also implemented all what I
did<br>
in a way that it'll work for both architectures, but I would be
delighted<br>
if you take over responsibility further development on x86_64.<br>
<br>
Many Regards<br>
Klaus<br>
<br>
P.S. watch this list for the invitation - it's usually sent by Till<br>
<br>

tbh, the OI installer really should support using GPT
partition next to whole disk setup option (and perhaps the
MBR related setup should be hidden behind “advanced” or
“historical setup” page;)</span><br>
