During the initial boot...there is a text option on the bottom (and
maybe in the initial menu) that you can select with a function key (just
don't remember WHICH function key). You won't want to install it...the
package manager still has a few issues in it and you may not be
successful in the install....after all it IS alpha. Once you do get it
installed it's not much different than 10.1 at this point other than new
rev's of gnome and kde and various other packages.
