I was unable to locate an md5 checksum for the 4.7-RC2.iso but it seemed to be okay. The install went smoothly as expected. Normally, I don't install KDE or Gnome but I tried the KDE desktop. When I reviewed the package selection menu, I noticed that it had only installed some of the kde libs and the kde base. The meta port for KDE was not marked as already having been installed. I selected the meta port and it installed the remaining uninstalled KDE elements (games, network, multimedia, etc). Is the intended behavior? I would have thought that the entire KDE suite would have been installed if I had selected it as my desktop during the install. I can repeat the install if needed, making notes of the packages that do get installed when selecting the KDE desktop as the default. I'll try a few more fresh installs in various ways, but things seem to be pretty smooth.
