Do any of you see reasons for not making this change, and dropping the
alternate CDs? Are there shortcomings to the proposed fallback solutions
that we haven't identified here?
Purely from a user/tester perspective a current reason to not remove in
beta1 is currently for many or most users the live image is completely
unusable. No live session or install is possible due to total video
degradation. (quite similar to the lightdm/greeter/nvidia issue in 12.04
dev.
The one exception seen here is when the hdd is devoid of any
Ubuntu/grub/lightdm installs, only then is any recent image viable. That
though is not a typical scenario for most.
Maybe this is a well known issue & expected to be resolved, if not then
removing the alt. installer will prevent many from installing the beta
or thereabouts if not fixed in the near future.
