Just bought a new server from my datacenter and i've been trying to install proxmox 2.1 over KVM for the past 8 hours and nothing I do can seem to get it past the 8% installation mark on my server. It hangs when it tries to create a root filesystem, or it completely crashes the server and restarts it.

Other OS's install fine without any issues, and the HDD has been swapped out as well to no avail.

Anyone have some suggestions as how to get past this?
