I'm not a developer, there is no way I would have installed this except by "my copy of 3 broke and the downloaded DVD's chose now to fail or this".How bad can a BETA be. I was given to understand all a BETA copy was just a case of getting stuff to work on lots of different kit. I just downloaded a live 4 and I've got to make it work.

Well it was a live disc so it was short of app, but when I tried to install them URPMI wouldn't update well that was me. . Luckily I found another live disk of M3 and with an external DVD it installed, it wouldn't boot on the internal.
