Open Source Unix Shell Installers for Linux

RichARCH is designed to be a Quick Simpler Path to Arch with automation and ricing options. * Just one command line to start the latest complete installer for Arch. One goal is to only use packages in the basic Arch Linux repos by default with the option to install some non-standard packages. Our hope is that this will help to make Arch Linux more approachable to individual and corporate users.

FOR WINDOWS USERS WHO WANT TO JUMP TO LINUX EASILY/PAINLESSLY WITH A FAST BOOTING USB FLASH DRIVE. LATEST VERSION AT www.grub4usb.com A simplified "FAMILY TREE"/"Ancestor" perspective: www.grub4usb.com for more. Introduction (from http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/) GRANDPA: GRUB is a Multiboot boot loader. It was derived from GRUB, the GRand Unified Bootloader, originally by Erich Stefan Boleyn. DAD: GRUB4DOS made it easier for Windows/DOS users, but was still unreliable; the boot record was difficult to install for average users. GRUB4USB was developed to automate the installation of the correct 446 bytes to the boot sector, providing Windows Users with a bootable USB Flash Drive which could contain any flavor of Linux (or other OS). IDIOT PROOF: GRUB4USB is "AUTOMATIC AND HANDS FREE". Simply insert USB Flash Drives, they're detected, the boot record is installed with a Linux distribution to quickly create functional, bootable USB Flash Drives; aka LIVE USB.

barcat is just like "cat", but displays an ASCII progress bar. Its goal is to work on any Unix-like platform and to be directly usable in installation scripts without needing compilation, so it is a pure shell script.
