Installing the beta in a VM now. I'll be excited to slap this on a work machine it goes gold.

... looks good, used LUKS/LVM on a DOS partition set up.

Good that other users are succeeding. I have hmade 5 attempts to download MX-18 from Source Forge, each one failed before completion. Will for America to go to bed then try again.

Have you clicked the "problems downloading" button?

@ ER Yes, tried a closer mirror, and two different machines here. Each time the download gets within a few second of the finish, then stalls and eventually fails.

Still buggy Thunar 1.6.12!!

MX 18 could be a good opportunity to update Thunar to 1.6.15 that is working beautifully in my MX 17 since last June.

I was just checking out MX-18 beta 1 and so far looks great except I found that password box is an inconsistent strange size on MX-18 as it was in MX-17.1 when you right click on the update icon and select check updates opposed to left clicking on it. I wasn't able to do a screen shot on MX-18 but I show you what I mean on MX-17.1 since it's the same inconsistency. Resizing it to match all the password boxes would give MX-18 a spit shine polish. The top picture shows the weird odd size while the bottom picture shows the correct size.

I've just asked for 1.6.15 to be moved to main. Thanks for catching that!

I installed on a VirtualBox using UEFI... the install and build went well; as did my customization. On reboot I have a complete and total crash. I will download and try again; as time permits.
