Naw....Too much effort to get an OS running. I am happy with 6.10. It installs effortlessly and it does what I need it to do. This just underlines the issues that Ubuntu and Debian need to take to fix the problem. I shouldn't have to "hack" the system in order for a basic install to function. Besides, when I tried installing 7.04 it was onto a primary partition and the issue kept happening.
