[PLUG] Install Dapper and it hangs

[Ted Kubaska]

Thanks, Mike. I did finally get this installed, but I am very disappointed
in Ubuntu right now. I finally did get the screen resolution I wanted by
editing xorg.conf, but I don't feel I should have had to do this.

I was unable to install the alternate way -- I ended up using the Live CD,
chose install, let the install crash and then brought up the crashed
incomplete version which did surprisingly come up and configured it to be
what appears to be complete -- we'll see. 

I do have a virtual machine now that I can checkpoint.

I honestly believe it should have come up much easier than this. Breezy did.

Dear Ted, 

I had a similar problem with the Dapper RC on one of my systems when I tried
to install from the Live CD. However, it worked fine from the other CD
("alternate install CD").

In other words, there are two ways to install Dapper. If one doesn't work,
try the other.

Thanks,
Mike
