 Both 7.0-CURRENT-200607 and 6.1-STABLE-200607 (july) snapshots failed.
 The 7.0-CURRENT-200608 passed the disk probes, and indeed finished the 
 install, but was subject to a massive interrupt storm.
 
 As of today (2006-sep-16) the problem is solved in both 7-CURRENT and 
 6-STABLE (soon to be 6.2-RELEASE), I verified personally with 2 
 home-built snapshot CDROMs.
 
 I think this PR can be closed (FIXED).
