For the gravemind i would say that the pawns were sent to the Ark maybe it went to the ark as well, however the GM seems to know things from its first appearance and will just reform again. I don't think that the fight is truly finished, nor do i think that we have seen the end of the halo series. The MC destroyed the most effective weapon at combating the flood. Things may escalate if they are controlling the installations. The Gravemind has been able to effectively shutdown all installations if this is the case. Unless the forerunner world holds another weapon, created by the forerunners after they eradicated the flood. With the latest increase in bungie ARG style messages i have a feeling that halo 4 or some major part of the story is about to play out.

Although it is not so because Installation 05 is the 5th ring from the platform on which Truth and the brutes reside rather than the direction in which the player enters the area. (whereas the 5th ring in from the entrance has a volcanic surface, and this is obviously not so as Delta Halo had an identical surface to Installation 04) This ring is often mistaken for Installation 07 because of the order of the rings in the level the Covenant.

It's still perfectly habitable. It's not a giant flood carpet. And the planet you see at the end of Halo 3 is not the flood homeworld. If you were a true fan of this site you would have read the article on that planet. It is a shield world. That is just plain’s instalation 04 was the same way in part’s of it if you remember.

My opinion about this ring is not so different from the others, it's a gigantic Flood mass or a desert-like atmosphere, the latter being my favorite because if it was a Flood infection, that mass would probably be a gravemind or worst, 'cause the gravemind in Halo 2 wasn't that big, as far as I could see, and that gravemind is controlling the flood. Or maybe this is a big biomass with not much power as the Delta Halo Gravemind. Anyway, it could be both, 'cause the surface is all lumpy flesh-like.

These arguments can be supported as follows. The desert environment is likely because the Forerunner wanted to trip up the flood. By changing each ring's habitat they could have hoped to stall any flood advance, at least for a while. The biomass is likely merely because of the coloration and the fact that flood biomass itself is only moderately intelligent and would therefore be spared if it were behind enough shielding. In addition, the Flood biology may be much more highly resistant to radiation which I am sure the rings use. On a side note, the Halo Effect only affects creatures with "...sufficient biomass to sustain the Flood" - Guilty Spark, Halo 1. So if small pockets of flood were dispersed around the facility they could have easily survived the initial firing of the rings.
