Comments/Problems:
After system installed, hotplug loaded a set of drivers automatically that
appear to crash the system after a very limited time (less than two
minutes).
I will attempt to track down exactly what hotplug is loading to cause the
bug, but at first glance it appears to be the intel framebuffer driver for
the console screen... Will update entry when I determine exact driver(s)
causing the issue, and will report a bug against that version of hotplug for
it.
Now I have tracked down issue, will re-install using software raid for data
drives. I can't wait until /root is acceptable for software raid under
debian...
