Re: guests install problems

I had the same problem and I just figured out a workaround.  The
issue is that the curses screen-drawing library isn't happy -- it
can't print the nice grub-like kernel selection menu.  On my
computer, this is because I sshed in from a Mac Terminal window.
When I connected via an xterm, it worked fine.

Seems like a bug to me.

That sounds like a good possiblity since I'm at work and sshd to it, I'll try running it on the box and see what happens.
