I have been building a media server and now when I got to the part that I would 
install an OS I hit a wall.

I can't get SXCE to get past the copyright lines after grub. The installation 
hangs on "configuring /dev". Timeglass cursor goes around a bit and then 
nothing. DVD drive stops spinning too.

I have tried SXCE snv_101 64-bit and Opensolaris 2008.05 snv_86(?) 64-bit and 
both give the same result.

I have run the installation check tool cd too and hardware checks out ok except 
for the Realtek onboard NIC but there was a third party driver for it. 

Configuration:
Q9550
Gigabyte GA-EP45-DS3P
LSI 3081E-R HBA SATA card
PCI graphics card ATI 3D Rage II+ 215GTB
(J)BOD

I will try with a PCI-e graphics card later if that makes any difference...

So any thoughts/premonitions/hard facts?
