Read the second sentence of the OP's post.... he did post the error
message.
Part of the point of Testing is so that people like Stephen 'can' test
it. You don't need to have a pointy head and elitist attitude to use it
- just a tolerance for installing the regular updates and acceptance
that it won't be stable, or did I miss that meeting?. Note that their
are no bugs in the errata for this weeks image.
More information about the installation would be useful though.
Kind regards
