Hello Ricardo,

After beating my head against the wall trying to install FC6, I finally
got it to work by _not_ selecting any options. Using only the defaults
(other than telling it which drive to install to) was the only thing
that seemed to work. Mine would lock up on boot similar to yours.

I am not pleased with the installer program at all.

Good luck, Fred
