I don't recall anywhere to enter any boot parameters.  After 
the boot load started from the DVD, I don't think it stopped 
for input until it hit the test/skip option.  There was a 
flash of a fraction of a second of a screen that had some 
F-keys at the bottom, I think I saw F4, but that was all. 
Maybe there is a timeout issue?  I'll install again a few 
times to check out the problem.
