Hello! I have spotted a further issue — though I'm not sure whether this thread is the right place to report it:
One is able to select ratpoison as the only option in the desktop environment options in the installer. After successfully completing system setup from the ISO using that selection, rebooting the system launches GDM OK. Signing in to GDM however causes the system to loop back to GDM, instead of starting a ratpoison session. It is not clear to me what causes the issue, but I'm happy to help debug if someone can provide me with pointers on doing so. Intuitively, I would hazard a guess that the initialisation of ratpoison fails and the session is aborted, at which point GDM is restarted.
