I installed the beta yesterday and it works well, I like the new interface to browsing MP3's and such. I do have a couple questions though. I have a custom init script (/bin/init calls /bin/userinit) and I don't have (nor want) the voladj kernel. I also already have my menu system setup the way I want it. So I avoided using the installer so as not to mess up my existing setup. Can someone tell me what the installer does and if in the future I will be able to use the installer without changing any of my existing setup? I also don't have an /opt filesystem (the default location in the displayserver.conf file) is there a way during the install to choose this?

Also, I had heard there would be a more elegant backup solution in 2.0, is that ready for testing in this beta? I found that I could select individual files for download, but I saw talk of a new way of backing up an entire Empeg. Will that be coming?

Otherwise this is a very nice improvement on the original!
