<Possible workaround found.>

Auto install to a new PATA hard drive locks up between phases
1 and 2. It shuts down from the CD OK, and goes thru BIOS
startup and BIOS pre-boot but it never boots on the hard
drive. Not even after resetting the system. Does not even
start to print LILO.

I am using
Quote:
tv vga=0
at the CD boot prompt.

A quick test install of R5F27 works fine with these options.

I have two different systems (dual core @3.0 with hd-3500
and athlon 1400 with PVR-350) that exhibit this issue.

I finally got it to come up after leaving the vga=0 option
off the boot prompt and just used:
Quote:
tv

I don't know if this is coincidence or not.
