I know its not tested by the QA but I know there must be some image out the zillions of live images built there must have worked for someone else and If there is some way to add karma to the live images which works I would not have to waste my bandwidth downloading all the non-working images.

we've always had the idea that we should be doing automated testing of
the nightly composes, and for a short time we even did, using the AutoQA
'rats' tests. These haven't worked for some time, but I believe we're
hoping to revive that with Taskotron once it's up and running.

Then maybe we can (finally) populate israwhideworkingyet.com , or
whatever it was the original zygote of the AutoQA idea was called :)

I'm not sure manual 'voting' on installer images is a good way to go,
since there's such a huge variety of possible experiences with the
installer.

I've been using today's nightly to do some test installs, FWIW, and it
gets most of the way through but then explodes with a keyboard layout
configuration problem. I'll look into that tomorrow.
