Well, I know BETA 3 have not been announced yet, but I have installed it.



I used DVD disc.

During installation I had selected main.debug I think... a debug thing anyw=
ay.



So the installer said that a component needed Internet, and had me configur=
e it.

I choosed US Ftp6 mirror.



But it seems it was not ready for BETA 3.

It complained not finding files on the mirror.



So I tried to come back to the selection of the mirror, but was not able to=
.



I finally=C2=A0 decided to unselect the debug component, and I finished ins=
tallation.



And so I am writing this email from that installed system.



It might be me not knowing how to use the installer... but I suspect it is =
not me.
