Are there any bugs reported?

relative to this not as far as I know.

I am now trying to do an install using a 13.10 DVD

All this is a result of my earlier post and the subsequent bug #1304568 which has not to my knowledge been processed.

The 13.10 DVD installed OK, but on a restart same results.

I am beginning to feel it might be a bug. Un fortunately I cannot provide any more info as I have no access to anything, other than by another go at installing and choosing to try Ubuntu.
