I tried 3 times to install with the Live DVD version, but each time after Gparted, and add users no further status is shown for about 20mins then it says finished. After removing the DVD I reboot and come to the bios screen asking to reboot or insert boot meduim. It never asks to add the boot loader or gives and idea of what packages it going to install.
Live DVD came up fine
