Well, you asked for thoughts... :-) : I never do X configuration from the installer (and I always recomend to other not to do it either), since I think it's just too often something with X probing/configuration freezes the system or goes wrong otherwise. Then you have to restart the install of the entire OS, so I think it's much better to configure X after the main OS install. In short: Yes, please just nuke it :-). --=20 Simon L.
