You need to read very carfully. Did you install the "generic" or the
"desktop" build? ;-)

I can say that I only release tested ISOs (nowadays) and that the
-rc1-desktop works really well. The fact that I was really very short
in time the last three weeks is also the cause why the tagged and
built -rc2 is not released yet. I simply have not yet fully verified
the ISOs ... :-(

Maybe there really is an issue with the "generic" ISO, I only built
and test the desktop ones (aside the reference build of course), and
all the other contributors of e.g. the generic or minimal ISOs should
should also verify that the ISO is fully functional before the upload
- I do not verify this ...

The iso.rocklinux.de site could (should) add some rating and comment
field where people can enter hardware combinations that failed or
worked well ...
