r goes out of order. For example, I went from the choose
language step to the create a filesystem step because I had already
partitioned, but the default continued to be "Autimatically create
partitions (unsafe)" so I was forced to enter the number of the next
step every time.

I forgot to file a bug for this, but for god's sake the
locales need more descriptive names! I personally have no idea what
those locales stand for. if they're not going to have better names,
they need to be outside of the default priority level question set.

I have the same or similar issue with the Jan 2nd build. KDE seems to work fine.
Gnome error:
could not find /usr/bin/gnome-session
If I try to run failsafe gnome, I get an error that says the Gnome installation
could not be found.
I used ReiserFS.
I'm some what new to Linux this so pardon the la
According to vorlon on irc, the install code contains no Gnome code, so this is
an upstream problem.
Tried "apt-get install gnome-session", after apt-get different errors were
received. Seems like very little of the gnome system was installed.
