  Subject: [SLE] ftp install of 7.2


  I am doing an ftp install of 7.2 from ftp.suse.com and everything works
great, but the install always seems to hang after about 80 packages . . .
text mode or graphical mode. Does anyone know if there is a way to skip a
file that seems hung or to break out and re-connect without starting over? I
have only been able to ctrl+alt+del and start from scratch. If I ALT+F1 to
another console I see:

  okay, scratch that, in the graphical mode I cannot seem to switch to
another console as I did in the text mode, or I am frozen completely, which
I dont often see in linux :)

  TIA

  Chris
