“Today we had the pleasure of playing a little with the
new Ubuntu installer, present in the latest daily build of the
upcoming Maverick Meerkat (Ubuntu 10.10) operating system, due for
release in October 10th, 2010. The installer is completely revamped
and accessible by Linux beginners.

“A month ago we’ve presented the new installer of the upcoming
Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick Meerkat) release, in an interview with Evan
Dandrea, Software Engineer on the Foundations Team at
Canonical.

“The new installer offers users the possibility of downloading
software updates or/and installing proprietary drivers for wireless
cards, support for MP3 files, Adobe Flash Player, Java and DVD
playback support.”
