Comments/Problems:
--When selecting the Belgian keyboard layout, I got the error message 'An
installation step failed: Select a keyboard layout'.
On /dev/tty4 I could read:
do_page_fault pid=1065 command='kbd-chooser' type=15 address=0x00000002
segmentation fault
(this is not the complete output)
I chose the 'American English' keyboard and the installer continued.
-When installing the base system, the installation seemed to stall on
'Retrieving console-data'. I waited for more than half an hour, but the
installer did not continue. On /dev/tty2, I could see that a 'cp'-command was
running.
When I tried to manually copy the file (console-data) the shell also blocked.
I burned the image on another cd, but the problem persisted. I even tried
another machine --> same problem.
I could mount the cd and copy the file without problems on my i386 machine.
