Comments/Problems:
Fails Installing base system at the "Updating list of available
packages" stage. Log console has:
Err http://mirror.mcs.anl.gov sarge/main Packages
Could not connect to mirror.mcs.anl.gov (1.0.0.0), connection timed out.
Have tried 4 different mirrors, same result. At this stage, it has
already downloaded all the base packages so I'm at a total loss what the
problem may be.
