This has nothing to do with the Installer project.

Those *are* EM64T Xeons, correct?  Also, exactly which CD are you using?

Yes, we are using EM64T Xeons. The CD image is located:

Thank you,

Can you try 2006.0 and see if the problem is resolved?
Comment 4 Chris Gianelloni (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-07-19 05:47:33 UTC 
No reponse.  Likely fixed with 2006.0's release.  Feel free to REOPEN the bug if it was not fixed and you have time to assist in testing this.
