From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Don't they provide Live ISOs with an GUI installer?
You are right. Official Live ISOs have gui installers, I tried it once and in my opinion it lacks some features. I wanted perfect solution for me which also can be solution for someone else. I think my script contain a lot of useful stuff. Ive seen theres way to modify gui installer, but it didnt came to my mind anytime. Writing this script gave me alot of bash knowledge which for suer will be useful. Thanks for reading this :D.
