This has nothing to do with the Installer project.

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

Please see inline:

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

Can you try 2006.0 and see if the problem is resolved?

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.
