Just installed 11.04 w/Unity as a dual boot with 10.04
I installed Natty this morning on a P4 with 2.5 Gig RAM. I chose the option to install with my Lucid. I also had a bit of confusion partitioning the single drive on the computer. I also had a bit of trouble with the testing option, the install worked. I had used the betas on Virtual Box but it would not allow the use of Unity.
I had a few hitches getting Nattty installed, including the TEST opting, I stuck with it. But, I do understand why others do not feel it is worth their spending too much time on a version that does not "Feel Right". I have rejected many distros because some little thing just seemed like too much trouble to fix. Then, I have tried some that worked on one of my computers but not on the other. The nice thing about Linux is that somewhere in the 300+ listing on Distrowatch, you will find one or six that does what you want to do. For me, Ubuntu 10.04.2 and Windows 7 works for me. And, I keep one hard drive if I hear about something I want to try. I find that I keep coming back to Lucid and most likely will until the next LTS comes out.
Right. Almost forget: Good or back, at least the desktop is no longer boring. I'll keep it on at least a week to get the hang of Natty. Or not.
