I installed the Beta using mini.iso installed on a USB stick using FSUSBi on an older desktop machine. The only 2 issues that I saw were 1. On a slaved hard drive I have Windows XP with NTFS format. The install process recognized it and the message seemed to imply it was going to be added as secondary boot option in Grub. When the installation process was complete Windows XP was not an option in the Grub boot menu. Not that I really care about XP anymore but that it should be reported as an issue for newer users switching from Windows. 2. The KDE GUI environment was installed by default. I have always used Gnome and earlier installs of gNewSense installed Gnome by default including the Parkes Alpha installer. On the login page Gnome was not a SessionType option. 3. It seems that root is no longer a "user" one can log into. Earlier versions of gNewSense had the 'admin' user but perhaps that was an Ubuntu thing. Otherwise every else seem smooth. Let me know if installing with the Live CD would be worthwhile to test. Dennis
