Comments/Problems:
Install freezes at the beginning, during the initial hardware detection. This occurs at the same spot every time, when it says "Detecting hardware to find CD-ROM drives", the progress bar shows 97% complete and right below it says "Starting PC card services..."
I tried different install methods and this occured whenever the 2.6 kernel was to be installed. When I tried the installation with the 2.4 kernel it did not freeze at that point.
If I can be of any help please don't hesitate to ask.
