Just to add sorry, I gave up on the idea for now but if I was that keen on getting it on my PC I am sure I'd have found a work around (such as upgrading from Dapper via Edgy). I run Edgy on my laptop every weekday, but thought I'd give it a go on my PC while I was at home.

I have an ATI graphics card and have previously had to edit xorg.conf to boot to the installation desktop. Adding a vga option is much cleaner, thanks.
