It hung, but I can't say the installer didn't warn me. Next time through I tried LILO and it misidentified my /dev/hda2 (which is the "hidden" recovery partition table) as "Windows" and generated two "Windows" entries in lilo.conf which broke it - I fixed this by flipping over to the shell. Not really related to the install I don't think, but post-reboot I get a ton of useless modules I can't remove: via82cxxx 13788 0 [permanent] rz1000 2432 0 [permanent] ...etc (I remember having a Pentium 60 with an RZ1000!)
