Options of instalation
Posted: Thu Feb 02, 2012 1:06 pm
Hi, I'm wondering if you could add in install process of Linux Mint, a page with "options of installation" or something similar, as is in Windows 98?
Because sometimes I need multiple computers, so i make them in virtual box.
And if each of my virtual box instances is using 4+GB of space my hard drive 64GB becomes to small.
Mostly i need only basic functionality, on virtual machines.
My virtual computers run MySQL or postgresql databases, web servers or some other programs which i install on them.
So there are no need for music players, picture editors, codes, ...
I know there are some distributions which allow you to chose which packages to install but that is too complex - after all there is over 10.000 packages to choose from.
So if you could make 3-4 profiles from which you could choose during install, that would be great. (Minimal, Basic, Multimedia studio, Developer machine, ...)
