Bug Description
Hi,
From mid December I was toying with your trusty ISOs from server2.
1. On my All-In-One HP PC with nVidia (few years old) I had at least 2 different Ubuntus, 2 different PeppermintOS, eOS Jupiter and Luna installed more than 50 times without any issues at all.
Now, with your ISOs I was never able to do so although I had no issues with early and final Ubuntu 14.04.
The problem is graphics, even under Plymouth theme the screen is "wrong" and when Pantheon kicks in everything gets scrambled in thousands little color boxes. You can see that you are moving mouse and slingshot dropping down but it is not usable. Even the last ISO from few days back is having this issue I've never had before on any distro on the same machine.
2. On my new HP ProOne 400 with i3 Haswell and Intel 4400 graphics, Ubuntu 14.04 detected my wireless and immediately installed kernel module for it. This is not the case with Isis. I must finish installation and manually perform kernel module installation from the files that are already on Isis installation USB stick. Since this PC has quite generic configuration and the files are obviously on the stick Isis should do this automatically since many people don't know how to install kernel module from the installation stick.
