I attempted installation on rx2620 using CD-ROMs of the "20050425" iso
images hosted at oss.sgi.com

Using all defaults, the following error appeared immediately after
announcing where the installation log would be stored, i.e. after
package selection and dependency resolution.

Suggestions?  Is there a more recent build I should try?  

I also attempted to do a PXE boot using the kernel/initrd pulled from
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/ia64/
then an http installation from that same location, but was confounded
by Fedora's lack of http proxy support!  I can mirror that location
but it will take a while...

Thanks,
Aron
