There are two categories of bugs:

    - many duplicates
    - many poorly qualified bugs (and reporting accurate
      hardware information is non trivial)
    - the install changes much during beta stabilization
    - we have little resource to investigate hardware problems
  hence, many of them stay open forever.
 

Maybe I don't understand the categories correctly, but I have submitted 
many install bugs with reproducible cases which seem to stay UNCONFIRMED 
forever.  I'm assuming that UNCONFIRMED means that nobody has had time 
to try the reproducible case, and that if they had, the bug would have 
changed status to either ASSIGNED, WORKSFORME, or NEEDSINFO.

So not all install bugs which stay open forever do so because they are 
poor bug reports.  The indication is that many of them simply don't get 
looked at because of resource issues.
