This fixes a number of glaring bugs in RC1, chiefly the problem that many users experienced with panics during install and dynamic library problems in the 'fixit' environment. It also contains a complete set of packages on disc1, including KDE and Gnome desktop environments. I'm hoping for this to be the final RC before the release in the first week of January, so please go out and have fun with it over the holidays. Special thanks to Jeff Roberson, Doug White, John Baldwin, and many others for working hard to fix the bugs in RC1.
