Not good so far. The machine in question is a small Dell desktop (2.4 P4, 512 megabytes of memory) which I use for testing.
I had installed F11 on this machine back when F11 came out, and had moved to KDE from Gnome.
When I went to install F12 from the KDE live-cd today, the installation blew up, managing to kill X and causing a shutdown. I decided to give the Gnome live-cd version a try, and the installer also died with a rather cryptic whine about LVM (perhaps due to the very unclean previous installation failure?) I decided to try / and swap on ordinary partitions rather than logical volumes, and managed to install. The machine stayed up for a while, but after about three hours hung in a very odd fashion: I could still move the mouse around the screen, but nothing was responding to clicks. I tried to switch virtual terminals with CTRL-ALT-F[2-6] and also tried to kill the X session with CTRL-ALT-BS, but with no success. I then did a powercycle of the machine and it's back up now.
