Description claire robinson 2013-03-07 19:11:52 CET 
Installing from 3beta3 classic DVD i586 on a system with 4Gb memory

Server kernel is installed due to the memory

Installing the proprietary nvidia driver at install first installs 
kernel-server-devel but then also installs kernel-desktop and
kernel-desktop-devel before installing nvidia-current-kernel- for each of them.

It should either install kernel-server-devel and nvidia-current-kernel-*-server
or install kernel-desktop and devel & nvidia for that instead.

* selecting kernel-server-latest-3.8.1-1.mga3.i586
