My first install went fine, then I screwed some stuff up, so I decided to
reinstall, and encountered this problem. I too am installing from a cdrom. I
believe my problem is stemmed in a bad cdr, but I can't get to another cd-writer
for a few days, so I decided to trouble shoot it.
For whatever reason, it works fine when I use the text mode installer (type
'text' at the 'boot:' prompt).
I suppose its possable that 64 megs of ram isn't enough to run the full gui
installer - I hope that isn't the case, but I suppose it is possable.

I am trying to install mandrake-9.1 as follows:
- installation from iso (located on hard-drive)
- graphical mode used
- install partition is ext2 (formatted and checked for bad blocks)
The installer always freezes at the point where I begin selection/deselection
of the individual packages. When I expand the tree list and unselect a
package, the mouse cursor starts flickering and then X freezes so that reboot
is the only way out.
On the same machine, mandrake-9.0 can be installed smoothly using the exact
same method.
This bug is almost same as bug 2765 and may be related to bug 2014.
