I am using the DVD ISO for 11.1, I select just a basic install. But it
fails when it get to the Boot Loader Settings. Says it can't find an
image to install. I would hope this is the last iso, as I just
download this weekend. To tell me that I have to use net install, you
got to be kidding. If this is a know issue, why not fix it. I don't
have the bandwith for a netinstall, that's why I download the iso.
Even that took a two days. Usually any other distro take about an hour
or so for downloads.
