Same thing here: hangs at 2% "Retrieving binutils-static-udeb"

This is an ancient Rackable Systems server 2x PIII 850 GHz, 1x SCSI 18GB 
Seagate drive and 512MB RAM Tyan 
I am typing as I investigate the problem, since I have a drawer full of old 
hardware.

1) Switching CD-ROM from IDE1 channel to IDE2...
same bug
2) Replacing Seagate 18GB SCSI drive with Fujitsu 73GB drive...
same bug
3)Removing SCSI drive; putting an IDE WD800 80GB drive on IDE2 channel as a 
master instead, switching CD-ROM to slave on IDE2
same bug... Thus, this has nothing to do with SCSI drives.

4)Removing IDE hard drive, reconnecting SCSI Seagate 18GB, burning SuSE 11.0 
CD...
Success!

Summary: My hardware is OK, it's an Ubuntu bug, and it has nothing to do
with SCSI, it shows up with IDE drives too.
