Description of problem:
I am trying to install FC4 on my DL380 G2, using the FC4 install CDs. The boot proceeds as normal, until I get the message "Loading cciss driver", at which point the install hangs and does not proceed any further. Pressing alt-f2, alt-f3, alt-f4 still works as normal so the computer does not actually stop, but the install does not proceed any further. The Alt-F4 progress screen says that it has loaded the cciss driver, and it reports the drive I have attached OK, but that's the last message.

This works OK on FC3. I have updated the firmware to no avail.

This computer only has one drive in it.
