Hey, as of missing interest the further development of hyperinstaller is being on hold - for the moment. I cannot make a final statement for the moment as we are in the middle of the kernel-development. But there will be for sure a text-oriented way for installation.

Will an openbsd-like text ui installer be available, too?

If you have interest to support: We have plans for hyperinstaller being included the fast as possible. Let me know if you want to see more so I can post the corresponding links here.

Hello, Hyperbola is planning to migrate completely away from GNU/Linux and using BSD as base. So besides that Hyperbola is also going more and more away from GNU/Linux as base. The original plans had to be changed therefore as we also no longer provide a graphical system directly as live-image.

Hi, is saw hyperbola saying it follow KISS design which is not bad but on the same time using CLI installation which is im not sure how is that should be simple for new users.

There are arch based projects using calamares e.g https://alci.online/

I saw a post since 2018 talking about using calamares:

But we are now in mid of 2022 and still not there, wonder what takes it too long to be implemented/used.
