Is is worthwhile considering a mini-cd, which just has enough of drakx
to get a system up and running and report to the user "I found this
hardware, if anything is missing please click the bug button below,
otherwise thank you for testing Mandrake 9.2, see you on the next beta".

This (small download - maybe ~ 20MB at most, minimal risk of problems
installing etc) will make it much more attractive and efficient to test
the basic hardware support, and would probably have found the 2 most
irritating bugs in 9.1 early on (PDC and framebuffer). But, it also
means kernel should be more or less final by that time ...

Buchan
