Comments/Problems:
The first trie to use DHCP failed, second worked. This is repeatable.
I want to install on my second hard drive, which is on the second scsi
bus. (shows up as host1/bus0/target1) The partitoner writes the new
lables, but the newly-created unallocated space does not show up so I
cannot partition the drive.

With Microsoft, failure is not an option. It is a standard feature.
