Do you recall the details of the failure near the end of the install?
The most popular failure recorded during the F-11-Beta so far has been
[Bug 492459] "traceback when ejecting DVD".

Are you able to change tty's when the system appears to hang (e.g.
<ctrl><alt>F2) to get a login prompt?  I've seen this sporadically, but
wasn't able to diagnose the problem.
