No text-mode installation on newest Trisquel Live CDs (at least on x86_64)

Project:Trisquel
Version:6.0
Component:Live System
Category:feature request
Priority:normal
Assigned:Unassigned
Status:closed
Description

The 5.0 version had the option to do a net install (encrypted root) at the graphical boot menu's (at least for the i18n); now, in the 5.5 RC it's gone.

Hope will get into the final release because it is a good feature.

Didn't get.

I think it's a critical feature, allowing users to customize the installation far beyond the level permitted by Ubiquity, including some critical security features (LUKS encryption). I miss it too.

I didn't try a i686 .iso, nor do I know any boot parameter which should do that option's job.

You can not really have a "critical" feature request like this. You can still do the text installation you just need to use the NetInstall and you can do all the customization you like. While I do too miss the text install being on the main CD critical is used for "show-stoppers" (i.e. causes trisquel not to work properly) or "freedom issues" or "security flaws".

I agree I would like this feature but it isn't critical because you can use the NetInstall version to achieve whwat you want.
