Comments/Problems:

Initial boot was somewhat problematic, as the system appeared to freeze after a
few lines of kernel output. Since keys such as Caps and Num Lock still reacted
and the last message was about disabling the boot console, I surmised that it
switched to another output such as serial or ATI instead of the Creator 3D to
which the monitor was attached.

The solution was to retry with "boot net video=atyfb:off". The rest of the
installation process worked flawlessly.

Booting into the installed system left me without a text console again, luckily
I had a X desktop installed which came up just fine. Then I was able to add the
above option to the SILO configuration which finally solved the problem.

Actually the network does not come up automatically, but that is a different
problem unrelated to the installation process (NetworkManager crashes on
startup).
