fc6-t3 upgrade from fc5 dies searching

[sean]

Using the fc6-t3 dvd, tested the media.

Tried linux text first. Ok until it starts searching for 
previous installations. Then:

lots of garbage - looks like cyrillic characters
install exited abnormally [1/1]

Tried graphic install. X starts up. Again all's well until 
it starts searching for previous installs. Worse, at least 
from a users point of view, no error message - the cursor 
just keeps spinning. YOu can see the error message at the 
console.

This is an intel d945gtp board , ICH7, one sata drive, two 
ata dvd's. On board intel 945g video, 1 gig ram. Pretty 
standard.
