    I can't help but make the assumption that it was the boot up process 
in initrd because any other disk I tried booted up past that.  I even 
re-burned that disk just to make sure and got the same result; it would 
lock up at random points during those dots that show up ...

    However, it's all a moot point now.  I got the system up and 
running, and configured.  It's already in production with no problems.

    Thanks for all the insight!
