Hi Darren,

I never said the build was stable :)
I said, the installation was successfully completed using Multiboot without
running any custom script. Mir still has issues with most displays. My
Nexus 7 3G (2012) display starts flickering the moment I open system
settings page. I am running trusty build no 79.



Regards,

*Sayantan Das*
