Comment 4 for bug 473507

Thanks for your e-mail.

Yes, after booting from the LIVE CD, when trying to run the System
Test, the error appears. It does this before any of the suite of
System Tests are actually run.

If you wish, I could video record the screen that details when the
error occurs. Please let me know, as I am happy to help out.

Best regards,

David Roth
