Hi Nio, I have only edited mkp2p1 to have to work around to get it to install. Now that I know the issue (fstab) I can find a solution :) So advanced install will not work for this current release. I think the swap issue is something that will be fixed when I generate the fstab file.
The manual issue is fairly simple... I think I have it point to the wrong place. I moved the pdf from $HOME to /usr/share/doc and I may have mistakenly not changed something... I was actually more focused on getting the consolekit/upower/devicekit privaleges working, as well as getting grub and the OS to install :P I will have to update things (since the missing fstab file is very important) This should be a fairly trivial update (I hope). Thanks for finding this bug!! It makes it very clear what the underlying problem is!!
