Hi All
Had a bit a difficulty with this release compared to previous...

HP Notebook 14-an013ar with eMMC (32GB) and 120GB SSD, dual boot with
Windows 10

Had issues selecting wayland or X11 GNOME desktop, installer
was not happy so just went with a basic desktop. After this  the
install was not happy that /boot/efi/EFI/boot and sled folders existed
on /dev/sda1 ef00 partition and would not install the efi files, booted
to a rescue system and removed the directories. I used the expert
partition and also noted the drop down list does not contain /boot/efi
as a mount point option even though it knows it's an efi partition.

After this install of efi files etc went fine and installed as above.

After reboot expected to see the Windows 10 entry in grub like Beta5,
however discovered that os-prober is missing so need to press the F9
key and select if want to boot to winX.

Then had to install the gnome_basic pattern manually.

As an aside, sensors package and the amdgpu kernel module (it's enabled
in the config bsc#1069343) are not present.
