-* test refactored disk code
ALPHA PHASE: get some people to test and suggest ideas, while fixing bugs and refactoring
General:
* setup bugtracker/roadmap thingie
* write the ui functions for asking questions etc for both cli and dialog and port all code to use it.
* find a way to not have to preload libs and stuff, only load them when needed. -> faster start of install program
+* test refactored disk code
Specifically:
* core/interactive: gui transparancy: interactive autoprepare, package selection
* core/interactive: fix workaround needed for installpkg exitcode
* core/interactive: keymap setting from installer does not go in $target/etc/rc.conf
-* core/interactive: manual filesystem mountpoints sometimes ok, sometimes filesystem creation is "very fast" and the filesystems are not mounted under /mnt
-* core/interactive or lib-ui: don't echo the name/id of selection options in dia mode
+* lib-ui: don't echo the results, just use the $ANSWER_<foo> variables
* core/base: implement as specified in README
* core/quickinst: figure out what needs to be done and do it.
-* time totally incorrect during install -> filesystem creation date is newer then current date -> on reboot in new system fsck. sometimes even forced reboot. (i've had this with /arch/setup too). a tool to configure the date? run ntp? (not always network available!) -> ASKDEV
-* /home doesn't get made separately in automatic installer. it's not formatted in sfdisk or _mkfs'd. is this only in virtualbox or elsewhere too?
-
+* find a way to make _cli_ask_checklist still userfriendly for long lists.. maybe we should just propose/ask to use dia if the list is too long
BETA PHASE: try to get aif on the (beta) installcd as an experimental, alternative installer.
* involve broader community

PRODUCTION PHASE: be the primary installer. deprecate /arch/setup and /arch/quickinst
* fix everything even more
* bribe devs
-* core/interactive: more control over filesystems (lvm, dm_crypt, choose each FS and each size yourself)
- when doing lvm install. copy /etc/lvm/backup to /etc on target (or maybe
- it can be regenerated with a command, i should look that up)
* core/interactive: when auto-setting up hard disk. show with a bit more detail what is happening (not 'partitioning <disk>' but partitioning, and each FS)
-* core/interactive: do pacman -Sy in the background during early phases, to
- lessen the wait period before selecting packages
+* core/interactive: do pacman -Sy in the background during early phases, to lessen the wait period before selecting packages
* write bash completion thing for aif modules/procedures
