Comments/Problems:
The Installer does not check if the root partition could be mounted:
I had a XFS-Filesystem on the root-partition (/dev/hdb5) and tried to
install there. The kernel wasn't able to mount it (ok, this is not
supported, so it's no bug), but installed everything into the ramdisk.
After the ramdisk was full, the installation aborted.

A warning is now displayed if you try to use XFS on your root
partition.
Can you please try the new beta4 and send in a new installation
report? Thanks.
