It always makes the release seem closer when there's a beta of d-i to play with. :-) Thanks for getting this working. > Feedback for this release > ========================= > > We need your help to find bugs and further improve the installer, > so please try it. Installer CDs, other media and everything else > you will need are available at our web site. I tried in a standard VM (Debian package from sid) with a complete default netinst i386 install. The installer worked flawlessly but GNOME3 had a problem: "GNOME3 Failed to Load Unfortunately GNOME3 failed to start properly and started in the fallback mode. This most likely means your system (graphics hardware or driver) is not capable of delivering the full GNOME 3 experience." That's going to make testing Wheezy CD images annoying. Anyone else see this problem? I tried logging in under GNOME and GNOME Classic - the warning didn't show again but the UI didn't show any visible change, it appears that only fallback/classic is available. Can someone using GNOME3 in Wheezy verify that this is expected behaviour? So the beta of d-i looks good - more testing to follow. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
