Description claire robinson 2012-09-04 14:59:10 CEST 
Pre Mga3 alpha 1 DVD i586

Testing various desktop choices.

I deselected everything in the package selection screen. On the next screen which asks about minimal installations I deselected everything, then decided to go back so clicked the Previous button.

This caused a crash/error screen.

I didn't manage to get 'bug' to work properly, unknown fs type, but did get photos of top and bottom of the error screen which covers all of it.
