Description of problem: Package installer hangs with 20 minutes left. It's clean hard disk install on my 4 cpu 64 bit machine. Hung somewhere around installing the C++ package. DMI: Hewlett-Packard p6610f/2AB1 , BIOS 6.02 07/21/2010 Had a working Alpha2 on same machine. NFS copied Mageia-2-alpha3-x86_64-DVD.iso to an older single cpu where the same hard disk install worked. Might be related to https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4035 interrupt problems in the kernel Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: AlwaysSteps to Reproduce: Always 1. clean install of Mageia-2-alpha3-x86_64-DVD.iso 2. Select custom partition, install everything in / 3. Select custom package selection select all package groups except games, LSB, only KDE, added xterm, disabled xguest package. FYI: Hangs at installing automake: A GNU tool for automatically creating Makefiles on a 64 bit guest install on my 4 core machine. VirtualBox host is a Mandriva 2011, using Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-4.1.8-75467.vbox-extpack VirtualBox-4.1-4.1.8_75467_mdv2011.0-1.x86_64.rpm downloaded from https://www.virtualbox.org/ Had no problems with Alpha2 guest installs.
Installation from a DVD of the i586 version hangs my PIII with nine minutes to go. It installs on my X2 AMD machine, but the kernel panics on boot.

No info in the TTY console f2, f3 or f4 I don't know anymore :/ (use ctrl right + fx for go in the tty with virtualbox)

Created attachment 1373 [details] VirtualBox Menu+F1
Created attachment 1374 [details] VirtualBox Menu+f3
Created attachment 1375 [details] VirtualBox Menu+F4
I was able to do some commands in tty 2 (if Menu+F2 puts me in tty 2)
Thierry, any ideas ?
