Hi guys, I've just installed the beta1 i386 desktop iso in vmware - and i'm disappointed to see that the OEM installation mode still isn't working.
I didn't enter a name for the 'batch of systems', selected 'download updates whilst installing', automatic partitioning options, timezone Europe/London, UK standard keyboard, and set the hostname and password for the temporary user. As with ubuntu desktop, the OEM user is created (uid/gid 29999), but the oem-config-prepare script is missing. I don't know how oem mode works on a regular ubuntu in terms of which packages are installed. If i manually install the oem-config package (and its dependencies), then run oem-config-prepare then i DO get the 'out of box experience' - however it's in the console not X - plus i am prompted to install packages for ubuntu server! I have a feeling that this bug might hinder lubuntu's official adoption as an official derivative which would be a shame. I like the ubiquity slideshow though - looks very nice! -- This message was sent from Launchpad by Richard Foulkes (https://launchpad.net/~rbsfou) using the "Contact this team" link on the Lubuntu team page (https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop).
