Hi all,
I've downloaded the latest version for raspberry pi from
http://scotland.proximity.on.ca/raspberrypi/test-releases/raspberrypi-fed....
When it come to the first boot screen, I found if I did any modification to the time zone
setting, there would be a warning dialog "Failed to set time and date." after
clicking the "Forward" button. So the only thing I could do to move forward is
to reboot the box and try again without any modification in the time zone settings.
I'm not sure whether it can be called a bug.
If I chose the "Graphical" option, it seems in many cases, there would be dialog
saying something like "Cannot find gnome session" (sorry, I can remember it
exactly. but it is something like that), but not on every time. Since it acts differently
at each time I tried, please forgive me I am not able to describe it clearly. And it seems
lots of work to be done for "Graphical desktop".
Then, I switched to the Text mode with a UART console. After a certain period time, there
comes out a steady flow of oops like this:

It seems that we still have lots of work to do to make it stable. And I'd really like
to do anything that I am able to. Is there any guide line about how to contribute?
Thanks.
