In fact I could argue that, since it's a one-time event, the install should be irrelevant. After some of the installs I've been through, I don't think so. SuSe 9 (10?), was really great except that the install display was split into four raster images in a quartered display. It was very hard to puzzle out and answer some questions -- the worst install I've had since the original Win95 which hung if the mouse was attached.
Kubuntu 7.04 wins my prize for the most effortless Linux install I have yet seen, equal to the best Win installs.

I got on another computer, did a google search, and had the work-around in about 5 minutes.
And I agree about the Feisty Faun install. It's the simplest Linux installation I've ever been involved in.
