+<PRE>These are my own very conchise first impressions:
+
+overall, i'm very impressed with what i see. i thought it'd be worse.
+
+
+- no rescue (as expected, even though the option is listed)
+- when looking at the grub/gfxboot menu?, the text only shows 1 or 2 seconds
+after the background
+- in installation, the backgrounds aren't anti-aliased (font also looks abit
+odd; allthough it could be the vbox)
+- diskdrake still has a star icon(also wrong scaled) when saying &quot;use free
+space&quot;
+- do we need a license agreement? can we not skip this?
+- ext4 by default
+- no btrfs? (except in advanced setup)
+- core media
+This screen was never clear to me, and i never selected it, however, perhaps
+for iso installation, a mirror repository should be automatically there and
+selected by default? so that if there's updates, they can already be used
+during installation... ? WDYT?
+- i selected HTTP and it installed a few packages so i could enable networking
+(2min)
+- the partition step kept being highlighted, even when i was configuring
+network...
+- <A HREF="http://distrib-">http://distrib-</A>
+coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/linux/Mageia/distrib/cauldron/x86_64 didn't seem to
+work when configuring additional media
+- KDE choice (very funny artwork :-D )
+- installing (5min)
+- when configuring, wizard said my password was trivial to guess, even though i
+had letter and digits in it with total length 8
+- updating after install
+- when updating, the messages had tiny fonts suddenly.
+- rebooting system
+- booting looked fine, nice gfxboot screen (this did not have the 1 a 2 second
+delay)
+- i do notice F1 F2 F3 but no visible text next to it...?
+- because of me having vbox3, the guest machine just crashed when X was
+appearing.
+- restarting (using safe mode this time), that worked fine into single user
+mode
+- init 3 (gave some warnings but looked ok generally)
+- messages about gpg-agent being started...
+- &quot;su -&quot; has the same message
+- non-free was enabled by default
+- i enabled tainted
+- perhaps the iso media should be removed after installation and when updated
+media are installed? it keeps requesting for the DVD...
+- vim didn't show a color scheme for /etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg .
+- trying to update with urpmi --auto-select showed me that i had an orphaned
+package ? kernel-desktop-devel ? odd...
+- i noticed sshd wasn't installed by default, neither was bash-completion
+- trying init 5 didn't work
+- i removed x11-driver-video-vboxvideo
+- init 5 said that display manager didn't work
+- vbox3 didn't seem to have a way to use a different emulated driver...
+
+
+I don't really want to upgrade to vbox4, in fear of destroying my other
+virtual machines, so compatibility would be very nice...
+
+
+logs vbox3 guest: (vbox3 is still in 2010.2, so perhaps we should have vbox3
+compatibility?)
