It installs fine up to the first reboot where a few remaining questions about root password and user password are asked. The installation screen up to this point looks just fine. Then on reboot the screen fills up with many screen fulls of cannot execute "/sbin/mingetty" ID "3" (or maybe that was an "8" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes. All of the tty screens tty2 -> tty8 or so scroll by with this message.
Has anyone experienced anything like this and does anyone have any suggestions on how I can resolve this.
Boot the rescue CD, chroot into your installation and try executing /sbin/mingetty /dev/tty8 (do not redirect stderr) and see why it exits early. Most common symptoms are missing libraries or a borked install (although that should not be the case right after the initial install...)
I have tried some of the other installation options and a few boot options dealing with APM ACPI etc. Sorry for such a limited report.
Any help appreciated.
