Hi Guys,

As some of you may have seen the new Ubuntu beta is out and available.
 I've made sure that its on za.releases.ubuntu.com and that za.archive
does have the relevant files for those doing upgrades.  Just a warning
regarding this, for those of you who might forget to read all the
release notes.  If you are running an Intel network card powered by
the e1000e driver, it will not work as the driver has been removed due
to the fact that it could potentially damage the network card.
Apparently a patch will be released shortly to fix this, but there is
no fix in the first version of the Beta.

Thanks
