Hello Steve, I'm not sure you are the person who I should report this but since I downloaded the .iso using the link from your e-mail I thought I should report it to someone. ( Since this is just a beta version, I was expecting some bugs, I'm not disappointed...I just wanted to share the info) When I start from the cd I just burned, The startup menu shows-up and without doing anything the language selection menu opens-up. After selecting a Language ( or just pressing enter to select the english default language), the start up menu appears. After, when it try to open a live session or try to install on disk, it freeze for a wile and then ask for reboot. I assume it might have something to do with my configuration...I'll wait for the official release...It will probably be o.k. I you want more details and think it could help other people ...let me know. <div>2008/3/6, Steve Langasek <<a href="mailto:steve.langasek@ubuntu.com">steve.langasek@ubuntu.com</a>>:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Hello Ubuntu developers, Welcome to Hardy Heron Alpha-6, which will in time become Ubuntu 8.04. Pre-releases of Hardy are *not* encouraged for anyone needing a stable system or anyone who is not comfortable running into occasional, even frequent breakage. They are, however, recommended for Ubuntu developers and those who want to help in testing, reporting, and fixing bugs. Alpha 6 is the sixth in a series of milestone CD images released throughout the Hardy development cycle. The Alpha images are known to be reasonably free of showstopper CD build or installer bugs, while representing a very recent snapshot of Hardy.
