DCC: this happened to me on the third boot, fourth is OK, Maybe linked to booting with or without power cable (without works fine). CXL: Also experienced occasional hangs on startup. Ctrl key noes not work in xterm. Xterm menus not localised. Cannot scroll application list in application manager. System shutdowns immediately on startup with addvandced-power packages install unless power plugged in, will shutdown when external power removed (even in apparently hung state). Memory foot print ~90M after startup with xterm and top.
