- immediately was confronted with 2 error windows:
- NetworkManager Applet: "Wi-Fi Networks Available Use the network menu to connect to a Wi-Fi network" (Why does this look like something went wrong, isn't this something okay?)
- gstreamer1.0/gst-plugin-scanner experienced an internal error
- after clicking on "Send" I got another error window: "You are not allowed to access this problem report"
- a new error window appeared: unity-settings-daemon crashed with SIGABRT in ???()
- again after clicking on "Send" I got another error window: "You are not allowed to access this problem report"
- started the installer-prompt manually
- there is no option for a "Full Installation" only "Normal Installation" and "Minimal Installation"
- At the users pane the monitor started flickering intensely when I entered a password and it went away after going to the next pane
- After logging in (after the installation) I got again the errors "gst-plugin-scanner crashed with SIGSYS in __GI_minicore()" and "unity-settings-daemon crashed with SIGABRT in ???()"
