I'm going to try one more time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The 2021.04.30 GUI Live Image has major problems.
gparted(1m) dumps core the documentation mentioned on the first GUI installer screen is missing the release notes are missing the GUI installer fails to install the boot loader the text installer incorrectly states EFI installs are limited to 2 TB --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- All of these issues are also present in 2020.10.31 and possibly older releases. This is a huge deterrent to new users. None of them is a major task to fix. Simply throwing something over the fence doesn't do anyone a service. Spending an hour once or twice a year to test a distribution image hardly seems a major burden. We simply need a review process such that broken installation images are not posted for general distribution. While I only have one or two systems I can test, I am quite happy to do it. Even a single tester is better than none. But my testing is of no use if the issues are not addressed before the install images are released. Without a reliable initial image from which to install, "pkg update" is of no use. Without new users there will not be new maintainers/developers.
