F8 install stalls - any solution/workaround?

[Mike Cohler]

I tried to run the F8 install on a Dell D610 and it came to a halt at
the same point as in
http://marc.info/?l=fedora-list&m=119457240222172&w=2

i.e. at
mounting /tmp as ramfs... done
running install
running /sbin/loader

it simply hangs...at this point.

Does anyone else find this on similar machines, and if so do you have
a work around?
