Bug Description

As of the latest daily, there is no 'pool' available on the CD. That means that we can't install proprietary drivers for users that need them.

This is really crippling as it means (for me) that I can't connect to the internet unless I can find a wired connection to download these drivers with.

It was there on previous dailies and disappeared in the latest one, or it never was there?

I suspect that happened due to upstream changes. I saw massive removal of proprietary stuff in seeds. Could anyone please test latest Ubuntu builds?

Please try an older build ( they're all stored on Sourceforge ) and report if there's pool on CD or not. We need to know if this is a Congrego bug or an upstream change to make their ISO fit into a CD.

I shouldn't require people who kindly reported a problem to look for its source. Sorry. Confirmed.

No worries, I was going to check it I just hadn't gotten around to it. Thanks for confirming.
