Re: install freeze at checking 'hlt' instruction

[Bob Arendt <rda@xxxxxxxxxx>]

If the install completes, on reboot interactively edit the grub (or lilo)
boot line (I think you hit "e" or "p" for grub? It's on the boot screen)
line to add the no-hlt.  Then permanently add it to the boot line.  Or boot
the install disk in rescue mode and add no-hlt to the grub.conf file.
