Description SamanthaQ 2006-03-31 18:26:34 UTC
Well I'd love to give you emerge info, save for the simple fact that I've never been able to get that far.

I have two 2006.0 discs here, I've read all the information, and booted the install CD, clicked on the installer, completed everything and click install.  Screen changes, progress bars come up, and then NOTHING.  The process goes to sleep and nothing happens.  The system monitor even reports the process as sleeping and I can (and did) wait for two hours for it to do something, anything.

Regrettably the command line version of the installer does exactly the same thing.  

So, what am I doing wrong?

Samantha
