I didn't see anything in the installation doc so I thought I'd ask if anyone has seen this before:
I'm trying a new install of SLES9 (s390 31bit) under VM. I had previously formatted all the DASD from another SLES8 system. The install was working on the second CD (core9/CD1) over NFS (loop mounted isos) with an ssh client. Several progress bars into it, the ssh client disappeared and this was written to /var/log/messages...

I've verified that the md5sums of the isos match what SuSE reports as correct. Everything seems in order, except for the installer crashes. Has anyone seen anything like this?
