Managed to trace the "hang" late in the 7.10 installation process to a
faulty CD drive (6 month old LiteOn DVD+RW). Tried a spare (older)
Samsung unit and that completed the installation all the way through.
So, basically looks like the alternate installer doesn't deal so well

I have 7.04 installed on two systems, one is a desktop using an Abit
