I'm trying to boot on the 9.0 Current or 8.0 Release CD to install and it just hangs on; "Probing devices, please wait (this can take a while)... " I've waited almost an hour. how long is it supposed to take? It would be nice if there were a status bar or spinning wheel or something to let you know if it's doing anything or hung. What can I do to get this to install. AMD Phenom 9500 Quad-Core 2.20 GHz 2G RAM Drive: Seagate ST31000333AS
