Imagine if after installing Windows 7 you were provided with a
boot.ini file which didn't work, but hey, it had commented out
examples on how to make the system properly boot. You weren't even
give info on which partition the system installed, the manual says
"Check your hard drive vendor instructions".

This isn't a 1-click install, and it's still a usability issue.

I know you seem to hate automation (because it sometimes fails), but
having each individual person waste hours on initial setup is much
worse than having a script which can potentially fail. At least the
script can be fixed once the bug is reported, and it can be tested.
