FC6 Install No go :(

[Kip Thomas]

So one of my installation attempt was to installing using text mode instead
of the GUI and I observed just what they saw in the Redhat bug.  My screen
would roll up with RED and the rpm errors.  Then it got tired of scrolling
and reset the video and it would be white text...I think it was beeping too.

The GUI hid all that.  The errors showed in install.log.
