alt installer is trying to shut down.   not sure why it didn't finish and 
reboot, but instead gave me a menu.  I picked "Finish the installation" but 
nothing happened.  looking at syslog and my dhcpserver logs, I see it is 
looping doing a dhcp requests every second, 
and erroring: Jan 30 12:50:16 dhclient: dhclient.c(2138): null pointer
