Okay, just finished it.  Had to uncheck the default kraft dinner
environment, printer, and system utilities.  Booted just fine and now
I'm looking at a normal getty, without the crash.  I'm inclined to concur
with the collected thinking here - that it's a video problem and passing
on kde solved it.  I'll probably install the other two just to prove it and
get the utilities (since there's likely to be stuff in there that I want).

So thanks very much for the guidance.  Now, one more question, if I
may:  What is the shortcut means to installing those two packages
without unnecessarily going back and doing the whole thing anew?
