Bug Description

Using a USB 4gig "live" version on Windows laptop. Included enough free space (3gig-ish) on flash drive to allow for updates and changes.

This is not critical - just playing while I travel. Decided to take flash drive live version to play with and wanted to watch movies. Followed instructions for post install upgrade plue restricted extras install
