Test BETA1 on a 7 years old PC

[Lebarhon]

hello,
The PC : MB biostar M7 VIT Grand (ViaKT 400/VT8235), Athlon 2800+, 1 Go, GC ATI Radeon VE DDR
Only one partition, Windows XP with 20 Go free on the HD
I choose to use the free place on a Windows partition, the system doesn't suggest any size for the partitions. It creates a too small partition for /, and in the following step (packages selection) it is impossible to choose KDE because an error message says that there is not enough place. No come back is possible since there is no button. you are obliged to choose LXDE !
Let's go for LXDE :
- not the least icon, not even a file manager
- the background is entirely black ! while there is an image in the console background (a green abstract image) the world up side down
- there isn't any web browser

However, all is running fine, video, sounds, internet, ....

It's a know issue, you need to remove manually (using rpm -e --nodeps kde-l10n-en_US )
