					<description><![CDATA[Okay. The more I use it, the more minor issues I have with it. First of all (and most irritatingly), the legal characters for passwords is artificially limited (things like ~!@#$%^&#038;* etc), which I use extensively, are not allowed; at least not for regular users. They seem to work for the root password. That&#039;s a biggie. 

The second biggie is that it (seemingly randomly) doesn&#039;t install bootblocks correctly, leading to some pretty spectacular failures upon rebooting :-) Does it blow away whatever was there before? If not, should it?

A minor issue is that when typing in user names, their home directory isn&#039;t automatically the same as the username itself. Yeah, it&#039;s nice to have the option to deviate from that, but it&#039;s a default that I (and most people I know) have grown accustomed to. I&#039;m a poor typist, and typing my name more often than I have to makes me cranky! 

I still think that it&#039;s turning out to be a fantastic installer, but it still needs a little work.
