If I knew an installation was going to have a problem and had already 
saved logs I'd do the following on the second try.
I'd select language then mash that < key until I got out to main menu. 
Then I'd do each install step using numbers on main menu and try skipping 
the problem number.  If necessary, I'd use that < key whenever a 
completed step put me into the next step to get back to the main menu. 
Hope this helps.
