    Heh, I may be stuck again.  The installation ran fine and when I hit
Reboot at the end, I was disconnected, as I would expect...  However,
the machine has yet to go down and reboot.  It's been over 10 minutes
now.  I can still ping it's IP, and nmap tells me that both ports 5901
and 6001 are open (X11 and vnc) however I can no longer connect to vnc.
At this point I'll just have to let it sit there till Monday since
there's no one there anymore...no monkey to push a button again.

    Anyone have any idea why it would be stuck, and/or on what?

If you have a uniprocessor system adding "apm=power_off" to grub may
fix the problem. Its a known kernel bug which appeared when the
uniprocessor and smp kernels were combined.

    The saving grace here is that since it hasn't rebooted yet, it also
hasn't configured any public interfaces, so it's still only visible on
the local network and (fairly) safe from external attacks.  Had it
rebooted properly and for some reason not allowed me to reconnect, then
I'd be a bit more concerned.  Oh well, live and learn.
