Ivan and Narendra:
If the install hang in configuring devices, you can at least try to boot
kmdb to get more information on where it hangs:
1. In the Grub menu, add "-k -d" to the end of the kernelline.
This will cause the kernel debugger to load
Loading kmdb...
Welcome to kmdb
kmdb: unable to determine terminal type: assuming `vt100'
Loaded modules: [ unix krtld genunix ]
[0]>
At the prompt, enter "moddebug/W 0x80000000", <return> and then ":c",
<return> which should print out each module as it's being loaded.
Hopefully this can tell us where the hang occurs with more information.
