Though not directly concerning this bug, I'd like to ask if anyone
experienced PRAM corruption or other strange problems while trying the
desktop amd64 installer.

I was able to render my MacBook 5,1 unbootable two times yesterday when
I tried the standard (non-"+mac") iso. Neither Snow Leopard would boot
nor any Apple installation media I had at hand, nor Ubuntu 10.04. OS X
told me it could not enumerate a USB device in some port (none were
connected) and then hung up with "still waiting for root device".

After zapping the PRAM, all installations worked again, and I could also
boot the Snow Leopard installer DVD. After fiddling around some more
with the amd64 installer, the same state occured, after which I had to
zap the PRAM again.

Has anybody seen something similar? If not then maybe I need to get my
logic board checked or replaced, if this continues.

I'll try the "amd64+mac" installer now.
