Yep, the installer will ask you to reboot & fix the problem.

Indeed, it does ask you this.
First try got me a sig11 second try gave me the warning box that there is a unchecked fs (probably boot which is ext2) and asks me to fix it first.

I don't know what is wrong with the box or the CD. it keeps barfing with sig11 and oopses. I don't get it. If I boot the selfcompiled kernel (2.4.2 based but then from CVS instead of the redhat kernel it doesn't fall over. Not even under serious load.

FYI it's a P1 233mmx with 64MB ram and a 20GB IDE disk.
I can send you the dmesg if you are interested.

Bye
