Comments/Problems:
Partition hard drives:
Selected manual partitioning, but test system configuration was not
shown. Had to click to raid section, do nothing but return to
partitioner to see software raidsets, then had to click LVM and do
nothing but return to partitioner to see LVs. Everything should be seen
first time manual partitioning is selected. Then, if the user wishes to
change things like deleting/adding an LV or deleting/adding a raidset or
just wipping selected configuration items, they can do so.
I must say, however, the current paritioner his is an improvement from a
year ago when I had to manually start raid sets and vgchange -ay in
console 2 before using the partitioner.
Reboot:
Booted ok, GDM came up (screen too large for display, tho), but no
desktop software was installed even tho I took the default Desktop
system. Had to get an xterm and apt-get install gnome. Used
mirrors.kernel.org for install and gnome install.
<Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments
and ideas you had during the initial install.>
Above pretty much says it. I test various distros and the test system
is setup accordingly thus making it out-of-the-ordinary. However, it is
a good test of a distro's installation methods, software packaging, ease
of use, features, timeliness, robustness, etc. They gui install is
getting there, would like to see less of a gui like text install and
more gui with drop down menus, selection lists, radio buttons to select
items instead of clicking on full lines of options, etc. Also, don't
know why the screen was too big for the display, but once into a
desktop, was able to select the correct resolution for the monitor and
all was well after that.
Have a dual monitor setup (two graphics cards, not using dual head ATM)
and had to manually configure X to use it. Worked ok, but would like to
see a gui method of setting up dual monitors and/or dual head offered
out-of-the box.
When logged on as an ordinary user and then su - in a terminal, cannot
start a gui application until xhost + as normal user and exporting
DISPLAY as the root user.
Sound did not work out of the box, but did after rebooting. Don't
remember what I did to get it to work. Did work out of the box on a
previous installation on same machine.
