Comments/Problems:
After selecting "Desktop" task it gets in 5% and sits there. The VT with the status message says..
a list of packages and "Do you want to ignore this warning and proceed
anyway?" - type Yes or No..
but there is no way to type Yes or No to continue so the install is
hung.
Have installed pretty much the same install on similar hardware using same proxy cache in the past with no problems, so somehow
the package dependancy mix is causing this pause for input when there is no way to say Yes to continue.
