The machine hangs during the *1st reboot* of the installation process. I never got as far as completing the installation (i.e. no root password was entered, no additional users were added, etc). So I was not able to perform YOU update.
The boot CD was created using the boot.iso/9.3-x86-64-Network-Installation.iso.
Since I was subsequently able to install both FreeBSD/Gentoo on this machine, I think the problem lies on the default kernel that the boot.iso installs. Perhaps all I need is an updated boot.iso? Is there a way to "update" the installation CD?
No, during installation the SMP-kernel gets installed, this one doesn't work. The only way to be able to download and install the updated smp-kernel is to select the 'kernel-default' during installation (deselect kernel-smp), Then you can _download_ (YOU won't let you choose the SMP-kernel AFAIK) the updated smp-kernel and install it.
tia,
