I cannot run any application, including anaconda. Perhaps if I let it 
sit overnight anaconda might display, but then I'd have to wait a week 
for it to install at this pace.

I managed to get SSH running by starting in "3" and then switching to 
"5". The process doing all the nothing is the loop device. The host 
system is reporting very small I/O through iotop. Roughly 200kbyte/sec 
reads of the ISO file every couple of seconds. I have tried switching 
the CD device from IDE to SATA to no avail.

I have no issues with my Fedora 18 or Windows VMs.
