The first run through the install (Easy-Setup mode), it complained
about not finding a certain depot, and offered the option to retry,
after which it seemed to be successful. For reasons other than this,
I ended up running a second installation, and this time it seemed fine.
This machine is now up and running and I've applied the latest quality
pack, so all is well it seems. Perhaps you might want to try changing
some other options in the installation - there are a few options I
changed from the default in the "Additional..." dialog of the installer.

Good luck - MF
