Finally, a successful install from rawhide. Here are some issues:
The text mode "graphics" look horrible:
- On the left side of the title is a J with a circumflex. On the right is
a square box. I'm sure these are not the desired graphics characters.
- Progress bars (or their shadows?) extend on character beyond the right edge.
- Shadowing on the bottom seems to be off one line too low.
- There is no border around windows, so when one window is displayed on top
of another it is very confusing.
Also, I end up with a negative number of packages remaining to install.
System thinks it's going to install 561 packages, but ends up installing
624 so the "remaining" count eventually goes negative. Here's my kickstart
