Chris,

I have to admit i do not install the OS myself when it is CentOS, i delegate 
that specific task. I can try to get more info but i am currently on travel.

About your problem, i think you are victim of a border effect, and as usual, 
this kind of situation is difficult to debug. I suspect a flamethrower 
misconfiguration issue. I should try to test it myself but as i said, i am 
currently on travel and i was lacking free time to do that before.

Anyway, the fact you did progress with the flamwthrower configuration change is 
a good sign (i think), we should continue in that direction.

Sorry for not being able to do more. :-(

Regards,

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.

Chris
