In all seriousness, what is it exactly that people have problems with
when installing Debian?  Is it dselect or something else?  I'll admit
dselect as intimidating the first time I tried to use it (at least until
I read the instructions...) but other than that, I don't remember Debian
being vastly different to the others.
