    It’s nice to see that their Debian edition isn’t being neglected. If I were to use Linux Mint, that’s the edition I would want.

    What is a OEM installation? Like, I get it’s for OEMs but how is it different?

      The OEM install option allows you to customise your installation a bit. Upon first boot the user sets up their account and user name and they’re good to go.

      It’s like buying a new laptop and setting up Windows upon first boot. Just less shit.

        That’s what I thought. I always wondered why that’s not the default. I’ve built some stuff for other people and I have to set it up for them along with the install…

          Yeah it’s always a whole thing of steps and shit to get to something like that. Wish it were easier or just an option or something.
