"You make no mention of the new tar-based install method on the DVD. It installs in 10 minutes or under, which is unheard of imho."

I really would like to agree with this statement.

However, with the previous version (1.4.2) and with the most update one (2.0) the installation process took me a long time to finish it (the longest Linux installation), and the version 2.0 I simply gave up and... cancel the installation.

Considering I am using always the same laptop -- Toshiba Satellite M30-801 -- for all the distros I test, and only with the Foresight I get these absurdly long times to install it, it must be something with the distro/installation process.

Unless, with the DVD version the history is completely different... I don't know.
