Base System Installation Checklist:
Initial boot worked: [O]
Configure network HW: [O]
Config network: [O]
Detect CD: [O]
Load installer modules: [O]
Detect hard drives: [O]
Partition hard drives: [O]
Create file systems: [O]
Mount partitions: [O]
Install base system: [O]
Install boot loader: [E]
Reboot: [E]
[O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it
Comments/Problems:
Resets occur after a short time when there is no user input at the "[!]
Install the GRUB boot loader on a hard disk" or "[!!] Finish the
installation and reboot" dialogs. The wait is approximately 13 and 3 seconds
respectively
This happens if I have quickly proceeded through all the previous dialogs,
taking the defaults.
However, if I pause for 15 minutes in the "[!!] Partition disks" dialog,
then continue on to one of the two dialogs mention above, I can then wait
indefinitely without the reset occurring. This is also true if I pause 15
minutes at the initial welcome screen or any of the dialogs up to "[!!]
Partition disks". 15 minutes is maybe a minimum - if you only wait 10
minutes you will still have this reset problem.
On those times when I am successful in getting through the "reboot" dialog
quickly enough before the reset, it then resets about the time I get into
the timezone dialogs.
Other notes:
- This problem occurs whether hyperthreading is enabled or disabled within
the BIOS.
- I believe this machine is in good condition - I've run Red Hat 9.0 and
Debian Woody on it before without any problems.
