Dear Bryce, Thank you for your email. Do you mean installing Karmic as an additional OS, or do you mean, running as a live OS from the CD only? Once Karmic is runing what do I do? Play an AVI wait for it to crash, re-start and then send you another bug report like before?
Please remember all of this is new for me, so the more information you provide me the quicker I will be able to help.
