no good news for you there. i tried installing it twice with
much the same results. very nice install, buy upon booting,
my system would freeze. ok, boot into safe mode gets
linuxconf, and a bunch of changes that have to be made. it
boots afterwards, but doesn't load all devices properly and
it won't start x. damn it all to hell. 

i did manage to grab redhat 7 (around 3am to find a free &
fast server) and that works great, without any problems. it
could use some tweaking, but then i should probably try some
other distributions first...
