I just installed the build 913 on a physical desktop computer. It's a
standard install with no luks partition and the use of nouveau.
I get glitches on the screen but the rest seems fine.
I can confirm the behaviour found by Ben: Calamares can be launched
only once in live mode (or in an installed system) on a physical
machine though this not the case in vbox. The error messages are not
always exactly the same. See the attachments.
