it's a lovely distro, great work guys.
However ....
I am just testing it in virtualbox and as you guys point out, to do that properly you need to actually install it to the HD, even in VB - right now it's running (and very well) from the ISO. But when I go to do that I'm nagged for a donation.
OK, I totally appreciate that you guys need the funds. I get it. But I'm not about to donate just to test out a beta. Maybe I should, but sorry - it's not going to happen. If I decided to install it as my primary OS, then yes, no question.
I'm going to continue to try it out from the ISO, but honestly I think you should maybe rethink the way you're asking for donations. I think you are going to annoy people more than you'll get sympathy.
Just my take on it and I hope I don't upset anyone with this comment because I really do understand you need donations.
