Thanks, Geoffroy - for your patience, as much as anything.
There has to be something funny I've done, or something different about how my OS is set-up prior to installing oscar, vs yours. I'm always attempting installs on a bare-bones installation. Are you also installing oscar on a minimum OS installation (no added packages during OS install), or on an "all bells-and-whistles" workstation installation? Or, perhaps OSCAR just doens't like me. Or perhaps, it really is a hardware issue.
