from the latest msg of TPG, it seems he made great progressThere is a distribution independent installer framework, called Calamares, which is already so good as usable.
It support UEFI (in KaOS), locales, automatic partitioning and it might be possible, to add OpenLMI Support to it.
Modules can get written in C++ and/or Python.
Calamares use Qt 5 and Kevin Kofler from Fedora already add and maintain the support for rpm5 packages.
