[SLE] Install with troubles



Linux SuSE users:

During the installation of SuSE Linux 6.1 I get a hang state.

The hang state gets in different phases of installation. Never finishing the install process.
I boot from floppy, select English as language, Español as keyborard map, and entire disk to use.

I have a 450 MHz Pentium III with 128 MB RAM and 12 GB IDE Hard disk.
HD:
Maxtor
CYLS 16383
Heads 16
Sectors 63
Model 91303D6

Mother Board:
SOYO SY-6VBA133

Video
S3 VIRGE/DX
ON BOARD
QSE4BB

Network adapter:
3Com Parallel Tasking II

This is the 5th time I try to install. It is hangin with a message:
PLEASE WAIT
Creating filesystem on "/dev/hda3"...

It is in this state since 4 hours ago...
Can you please help me

Best regards

Yours Ricardo Quest
