Title:
  Massive Installation Anomaly that circumvents RealTime Installation
  for the unaware.

Status in Ubuntu Studio:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  
  The installation for 10/.04 and 10.10 operates well - except for one Massive Anomaly 
  that has trapped me both times, causing me to have to start the reinstall.

  During install we arrive at an Input Screen which enquires as to which services we 
  need - Audio ? Video ? etc.

  This screen is very poorly explained and the explanation that does exist leads the installer astray very easily.
  IT'S SO HAIRTRIGGER that it flies on into the remainder of the installation without any RealTime 
  software being actually selected - which is very sad seeing how Studio is tipped as the 
  mother of all RealTime beasts - - -  

  In 10.04 I had to start the installation again. In 10.10, (on a different machine) I will try to get 
  the Audio system running post a basic install  - not much luck so far.

  SOLUTIONS TO THE ISSUES

  Problem 1 - Poor command annunciation. The arrow keys have to be used - they 
  are not mentioned in the text Menu, down on the bottom line.  Unless the arrows
  are used properly, then few options get ticked - - -

  1B - It's not clear which keys do what. Suggest that the "Continue" command be a 
  Function Key, so that it's difficult to go forward until completely finished with 
  choosing choices.

  Problem 2 - No "Are you Sure?" Input Screen. This can save the day, if
  present.

  Problem 3 - No chance to go back to correct mistakes. The "R U sure?" box
  should allow a return to the options so they can be modified before 
  proceeding.

  Thanks
  Ken
