Hi, I ran into a strange situation today when attempting to install the latest OF 2.1 FINAL and thought I would share with the group what my problem was (and its resolution).
I downloaded and burned the latest ISO 2.1 FINAL. Attempted to install a fresh copy on a server that already had OF 2.1 B2. I was able to successfully boot from the CD. At the the boot: prompt, I hit <ENTER> to start the installation. The installer then proceeded as normal: Loading vmlinuz .......... Loading initrd.img ............. After loading the kernel, the screen went blank (with a blinking curosr in the upper left part of the screen) and hung.... no Ctl-Alt-Del and do not collect $200 when passing Go. I did a hard restart and still the same thing. I have attached to this server a Maxtor OneTouch III / 500GB USB drive that was in "sleep" mode (when no interaction occurs to this drive after a certain amount of time, it goes into sleep mode). After cycling the power to the drive (off/on), I then did another restart of the server and all went well with the installer! Just thought I would share it with the group.
