As you can see, in the top left, I am installing 11.10 on this laptop.

The top selection infers that it will erase 11.04 and then reinstall it, not install 11.10 as I would of expected.
The second selection says upgrade to ---  Not saying to 11.10

I created the usb install from a fresh download of the 32 bit iso with
unetbootin.

Cheers
