[Lubuntu-qa] Fwd: Help - Beta2 installation Failed

Sat Apr 6 17:33:43 UTC 2013

You are reading my mind, as always and I like it :D

Yes, I'll now create a LiveUSB using the 'dd' method and try to install it.
I DO wish it will work this time :(

I will sure keep you and everyone posted. When you are back, poke me on
Failbook and I will be there ;)

Thanks!
