You could have chosen a graphical startup but got console instead, no 
problem just run startx and see if you get to graphical.

if there isn?t already one, options to boot into desktops, and a way to select exactly the software the user wants. That is it. Everything else works as advertised. I would also suggest auto partitioning, in both the text and graphical installers, since for now the user has to know fdisk, gdisk, or cfdisk commands to do it. This is not a complaint either, the documentation is very good. I?d be more than happy to help get this done, although I cannot code. Yet.
