I agree that Slackware would be the worst for beginners. Probably Arch and Gentoo next in line.

Actually, they all have an installer.

The worst would be Linux From Scratch. It does not have an installer at all.

Of course, if you *really* want to walk the edge, there is Suicide Linux.

This Linux has a very unique twist: Any time - any time - you type any remotely incorrect command, the interpreter creatively resolves it into rm -rf / and wipes your hard drive.
