install problem with fc devel as of dec 10

Has anyone been able to do a full install recently with fc devel?

My system is not rebooting after the rpm install step completes.

I've searched recent bugs and found nothing ...

I've booted install kernels via both copies of the pxeboot images (copied
to my local disk) and then via CDROM.

I'm then running over a serial line for stage1, with nfs and vnc install
options.  System is an older x86 IBM system, installing to storage
attached via SERVERAID/ips SCSI HBA.

I tried FC devel based on a rsync from saturday (dec 10), and again today
(dec 12) with apparently the same result.

On Saturday, I tried to just "init 6" in the shell (anaconda shell
escape), and first boot failed, I assume the install was not complete, so
that would explain the boot failure, not including further details.

Today, I was trying to debug some via the shell, but got stuck when I
tried to ping (was going to ping the network and then try to scp
information out).  Anyone know how to kill a foreground process in the
anaconda shell???

I don't have full dmesg output - booted from CDROM on VGA console, then
switched to the serial line.

The main thing I notice is this dmesg output:

audit(1134461372.947:68): avc:  denied  { execmem } for  pid=9577 comm="grub" scontext=system_u:system_r:anaconda_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:anaconda_t:s0 tclass=process

I would think something would have been output to the gui or serial line
if grub failed to run/install.

I can try installing again, installs are taking about 3 hours or so for me
(older x86 box ... no network/pxe boot), the dependency checking alone
seems to take 20 minutes or so. So, I can re-run and get more information,
but it will take some time.

Below is output saved during the install, before the "ping" stopped me,
including:

	console (serial line) output last seen
	tail -111 of /tmp/anaconda.log
	dmesg | tail -11

Thanks ...

======================================================================
Last output on the console/serial line before it seems to hang:

sh-3.00# * GRUB commands:
*       root (hd0,0)

*       install /grub/stage1 d (hd0) /grub/stage2 p (hd0,0)/grub/grub.conf
