Hi,

Last weekend I gave a openSUSE 11.0 Alpha3 disk to a friend and made him
install openSUSE... I tried to follow a bit what he did and where issues were.

The biggest thing I've seen that he was to much attracted by the green next
button, even though the system was busy and next not available (like on first
screen, when system is initializing.. the next button is green and as there is
nothing else, it's very attractive to click it... ).

Otherwise he was not that much worried by the installation... except: the first
user he wanted to create, as a typical windows user, he wanted to name it
Admin... ;) but even that's a valid user...

The partition proposal was a bit weird... he had a 40GB disk, 20GB filled with
windows.. openSUSE suggested to delete windows and use the whole disk... of
course *I* would agree to this.. he was not really pleased.

Dominique
