The problem only affects systems with multiple displays (or, more
rarely, systems with one display but a driver bug which makes X _think_
they have multiple displays, as in Robert's case). It's not an absolute
showstopper, you can blindly tab-enter your way through the wizard, or
you can just boot the first time with the second display not connected.
We won't be delaying the beta for it, is the final decision, it'll be
fixed post-beta.
