Description brenno 2002-04-02 20:16:20 UTC 
Running the installation application on my laptop (IBM T22) with SUSE 7.3
Professional totally hangs the system. After starting the setup the first box of
the wizard shows without text. When this happens the system doesn't respond at
all anymore. Mouse, keyboard are locked. Remotely pinging is not possible. This
problem was verified running the install as a user and as root for the 641C,
641D and 642. 

Remarkably I managed to install it on a different machine (five hangs) when
doing another attempt. To me it was totally obscure what was different.
Unfortunately this is a show stopped. Suggested resolution: SRPMS, RPMS and then
a post install configure.

It seems that I have missed the question somehow. My response would be
that this seems to be the issue. Maybe something for the next release
to make this more intuitive. Sorry for waisting your time.
