Borrowed a Dapper Drake DVD from a friend and tried out an install. Same
problem, it doesn't start the partition tool probably. So, as you say,
it's probably an inherited problem.

Hell, I'll have to do without gnewsense for some time then, till the
next version (hopefully) irons this out (running it as a Live CD is okay
for exploring and playing around but not for serious use). And I was
looking forward to using *totally* free software and donning a halo :-)

Is there some formal way to report this problem to the developers? Also,
I would repeat my earlier suggestion -- that install should be offered
as a boot option on the CD.

This causes some more worry, I've been waiting with bated breath for
Debian 4.0 -- will it have the same problem? I hope not, it seems to be
an Ubuntu 6.06 problem...
