[SATLUG] Getting frustrated with my new machine

[FIRESTORM_v1]

If you do the install, just before it resets your PC, go to an
alternate terminal window (on redhat it's Ctrl-Alt-F2) and you have
access to the system post-install.

And of course, I read this and find that you are dealing with an
AMD-64.   I would think the installation would be the same however.

Good luck with that.
