Yes, I did reboot, several times.

I hope it helps.

The three things which I could think of which might be different than many 
machines would be.
1) 64-bit
2) vmware server installed
3) raid install
/etc/fstab
/md0/bin        /bin    none    rw,exec,rbind
/md0/sbin       /sbin   none    rw,exec,rbind
/md0/lib        /lib    none    rw,exec,rbind
/md0/lib32      /lib32  none    rw,exec,rbind
/md0/lib64      /lib64  none    rw,exec,rbind
/md0/opt        /opt    none    rw,exec,rbind
/md0/usr        /usr    none    rw,exec,rbind
/md0/var        /var    none    rw,exec,rbind
/md0/home       /home   none    rw,exec,rbind
/md0/data       /data   none    rw,exec,rbind
/md0/s          /s      none    rw,exec,rbind

Maybe somehow the install is going to /md0 but something is looking for
the nvidia driver before the mount? That doesn't really make sense to me
since normally I can change the driver, modprobe the driver and restart
X and everything is fine.
