The /e/OS Installer arrives!

@Rik

Which devices are currently supported?

@GaelDuval

For now it supports the following phones: Samsung Galaxy S6, S7, S7 Edge, S9 and S9 Plus (all Exynos based models).

I’ve Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge “zeroltexx”, S7 and S7 Edge and wonder why S9 and S9+ but not S8 “dreamlte” (and S8+) isn’t in the potpourri of /e/asy installer.

@Rik

a windows version would be really great, would massively increase the number of potential /e/ users that could use the installer

Exactly, because no Wind°ows user will run the /e/OS Easy Installer in a Linux terminal under Windows, because the latest/beta version 0.8.3-beta 64-bit lacks the usual comfort of Wind°ows Apps and StockROM Android Apps.

And setting up a new Linux system is no fun for the inexperienced → Install /e/ OS Installer on your Linux distribution. The idea /E/asy Installer is great, but the current implementation will not lead to broad success (that’s what the look into my crystal ball tells me ;-/ ).

I would suggest adding back button to go to the previous step, if we go to the next screen the only way to go back is to start over.

Abolutely correct - a function that should not be missing.
