Description Ben Levenson 2001-02-17 15:41:19 UTC
build: qa0215.0
GUI workstation install on a Dell Poweredge 6300
The installer hung during the post install.  The status bar indicated
that the post install was finished, but the dialog box never
closed and the install would not complete.
System could be rebooted with <ctl-alt-del>.  A post-install check
indicated that the system was not compromised.

Reproducibility: has only happened once out of several similar
installs on the same system.  I have not been able to reproduce
at all.
Reports from Derek and Brent (on qa-list) indicate that similar install
hangs have happened 4 other times: once on beta3J (laptop) and 
3 times on wolverine (1 laptop, and 2 desktops).
