I just wanted to give more information.  I tried with an IDE hard drive and it
fails just when it is trying to configure the base system after the restart.  At
the top it shows FATAL:  Module fbcon not found and just below that FATAL: 
Module vga16fb not found.  The last time it had those as well but continued on
which it did this time.  It had trouble accessing the hardware clock.  It does
the starting RAID monitoring devices and then just below that it does the
configuring the base system where it locks up.  I have my SCSI card still in the
computer but it is not connected to the SCSI hard drive as it is doing the
install on the IDE hard drive.  I will try the install again with out the SCSI
card in there but at another time as I will have to wipe the hard drive clean
with another OS since the wipe entire hard drive just seems to wipe out the swap
space and nothing more.  I hope that in the future you can do some thing about
the network and let people set up pppoe when they are installing so it can
continue on.  Once you ignore the network settings the next part is to set up a
proxy and for those that can not get to the network this is a wasted step and
needs to be removed.
