Chose Legacy install so I can import it later to my ESX 2.5 server.
Ergo, I chose SCSI 0:0 6GB, pre-allocated, all one file.
Graphical install, chose all defaults except no SeLinux, no firewall
Set my host name, otherwise, all default.
Here was the only way I could get past not walking back and seeing a frozen
screen, with non-responsive mouse.
Choose MINIMAL install.
Reboot, THEN go install what you want... Just in case, during install, I
moved the mouse in slow motions the entire time... no idea if that actually
helped, or just kept me "involved" =)
