Hi,

Just tried out the Live CD. Pretty much everything in the Live CD
itself works, the only thing I wonder is if it's worth launching
opensuse-updater-kde on the live session; it's really as if a user can
update things from in there.

I tried out the live installer, and it has a lot of rough edges; might
be a bad idea to have the icon on the desktop (and instead wait for
11.0). Anyway, for the install (let me know if any of these require
bug reports):

* After you initially press "Next", why doesn't it go straight to the
"Change Installation Settings"? The screen it provides gives a very
loose summary of what's happening, and _very_ important text like
formatting your whole hard drive is written in regular sized black
text. This is a serious issue.

* It lists "Keyboard" but there's nothing below it (not even en_US) or
whatever.

* Changing the keyboard layout (I tried en_UK) seems to have no effect
on the installed system.

* I got two big green YaST errors:
** "Calling the YaST module 'inst_fam' has failed"
** 'inst_live_cleanup' later fails too
** My yast logs: http://francis.giannaros.org/temp/y2logs.tar.bz2

* KInternet tray icon (as well as KNetworkManager) is started up on
initial boot for some reason.

Issues that would be great to have but are probably impossible for 10.3:

* Selection of repositories before install
* All the install in one go (so when you reboot, you start the first
session straight away)

It is super-speedy though; time flies when you can browse the web/irc
at the same time. This is definitely the way forward :-)

Kind thoughts,
