Confirmed, here too. I think this remix should not have been released
without wider testing.

There will be an update to fix the LXDE specific bugs. Hopefully there
will be also a working syslinux, but I cannot promise this since all
LiveCDs I do based on rawhide are unbootable. Seems like syslinux is
