I found the problem(s) with this.

1. My firewall was blocking some tests. Some tests are run to loopback,
   but others run the the address of the hostname. My firewall was blocking
   the latter. Disabling the firewall fixed that one.

2. My hostname has multiple A records in DNS as the laptop may be
   plugged into as well as per-location names, but "hostname" is a
   constant and I has a 50-50 chance of getting the right one. I guess the
   previous attempt to install with the firewall disabled lost the
   coin-flip.

I added an entry to /etc/hosts for my system where it was REALLY
connect5ed and disabled the firewall. The install went perfectly this
time.
