Description Pavel Nemec 2008-03-18 12:32:08 UTC
I have little bit complicated setup 11 partition. I use KDE install cd and select to use partition 10 as root and I also select to format it. I did not set anything else.
Installation process hang and top reveal that grub consume 99% of cpu for more than 20 minutes. Killing grub helped. 
Logs will follow.
