I think that some clear documentation would be extremely helpful, and would have short-circuited a lot of my complaints from the outset. As to the installer, you'll find that people are much more willing to jump through hoops if they have a well laid-out "roadmap" telling them which hoops they have to jump through, why they have to jump, and whether the color of the hoop has any meaning.
I don't think we need wizards, I think a plain and simple guide would suffice. Step-by-step instructions on how to achieve a given install, and maybe a brief description of what some of the alternatives to the way the example was done would be. I'll do what I can once I have my "destructible" box back on the workbench... and the workbench in my new abode.
If we all agree that LiteStep needs some work, then we should do something about it. It's not going to finish itself. :)
