I did see your post. So, even though the sha256sum was perfect on the iso file and on the DVD, it failed to install. I then used a usb flash drive and booted the flash drive to do the install. It also failed. The screen image I took with my camera can be viewed at https://www.sendspace.com/file/4828ej The questions I have are: why VNC ??? VNC is a horribly insecure protocol. Why would I want someone from outside viewing my installation? Why is the X server looking for display :1 ?? I only have one display screen on the laptop, so the display is :0 This is a horribly broken ISO spin.
