All I had to do manually was set up the partitions but I know I didn't have to. I'm very, very impressed. -- Andy. |

Personally, I can't see what was wrong with the old installer, except that you actually had to read what was written on the screen and make informed choices, and then tweak your configuration in order to get a few of your unusual peripherals to work.
