My main question would be: what do you think is not covered in the
“Manual Installation” section?
That section covers full disk encryption and other things you propose,
such as partitioning, downloading the ISO, authenticating it, changing
the keyboard layout, etc.
>From a maintenance perspective, it does not seem reasonable to maintain
to similar pieces of documentation on these matters. From a user
perspective, it could be confusing or downright deceiving if one of
these two documents is out of date or erroneous.
All in all, for the topic we’re discussing, I’d suggest consolidating
existing material instead of writing new material.
WDYT?
Thanks,
Ludo’.
