Hi Paul, we are grateful of your time, do not feel pressurised into testing things, or a need to apologise!
For the G3 issue, can you please do the following... (18:00:46) bdmurray: for the g3 rerun the install and at the end of the install run ubuntu-bug ubiquity to get the log files from the install (18:01:09) bdmurray: then a picture of the boot failure and probably dmesg from the "command prompt" Many thanks for your continued assistance, Phill.
