Description Stefan Hundhammer 2008-04-21 14:04:23 UTC

In the desktop selection during installation, the options "Minimal X Window" and "Text Mode" don't have any description. 

Suggestion:

Minimal X Window:

This is a very basic graphical desktop. This option can be useful for low-end machines.


Minimal Server Selection (Text Mode):

No graphical desktop - text mode only. This option can be useful to minimize a pure server machine's vulnerability.

Text Mode: "No graphical desktop - text mode only. This option can be useful to minimize a pure server machine's vulnerability."

It's a pattern description but such text cannot be used in a generic pattern selector. User can select more patterns than only this one - in that case, the description would be misleading.
