Comments/Problems:�
Overall install was very good.
After install, I had problems with automounting of USB sticks in Gnome. �Gnome was trying to mount them as a CDROM drive. �The problem was the /etc/fstab file left by the installer.
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'vol_id --uuid' to print the universally unique identifier for a
# device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices
# that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
#
# <file system> <mount point> � <type> �<options> � � � <dump> �<pass>

# / was on /dev/sda1 during installation

# swap was on /dev/sda5 during installation

/dev/sdb1 � � � /media/cdrom0 � udf,iso9660 user,noauto � � 0 � � � 0
The /dev/sdb1 entry was presumably entered by the installer and should have been removed on completion of the install. �The Acer Aspire One has no CDROM.
