Which happens when you use the expert mode installation.
Please use the default installation method, anything else is untested.
We don't have many people helping with finding and fixing these issues,
so progress is slow. Anything fancy should be used on the release architectures
only.

I just tried the default installer and the result upon reboot was that
the boot loader complained about a corrupt filesystem.
I may need to boot the iso installer dvd and get a shell and use dd to
write zeros to the hard disk clyinders 0 and 1.
