I have major problems when installing 10 from scratch (ie freshly formatted drive) also. I have 2 different CD sets from 2 different sources here, and the same happens with both. Normally it all goes wrong after the files have been copied, and it prompts you to enter the new root password. Enter it, and click ok, and the whole system just locks up, and the only way to get it back is to reboot, and then the install is totally shot, as X hasnt even been installed by that stage...... The only way I have found around it, is to intall 9.2 first, and then upgrade from 9.2 to 10. Unless anyone has any better ideas?
