Thanks David and Doug for the info.
But I'm not sure I agree that it is a hardware issue, with the greatest of respect of course :-)
The machine I am using is a Compaq EVO D510 - I have 6 of these all running app_rpt. They all installed fine.
This is the only one I had any issues installing the ACID setup on. This was a reinstall as the HDD died and I fitted a new one and wanted to put app_rpt on it.
Unless something has changed recently on the ACID distro?
Anyone?
Thanks in advance,

There are issues with Centos and new Realtek ethernet chips. The OS invokes the wrong driver with flakey startup as one byproduct. If it does not finish updates and get the scripts for Allstar.. it stops and gives a prompt. I have this happening on ATOM motherboards...as the chipsets have some known issues...
The solution is easy... I use a usb to ethernet adapter to build with that is known compatible and then when all is done add the drivers I need to fix the MB issue.. and pull the usb to etherent...
Alternately on MB's I could.. I used an older PCI Intel Chipset NIC and get around it too...
This may have something to do with it???

Yep, I've noticed issues with the relatively old CentOS kernels and recent hardware, too....I switched to a "hand built" 2.6.30.5 kernel, on CentOS 5.x, and this resolved my problems.

Log in to the failed setup and look at the log file, and then post where it failed:
The default password should be 'setup' and there is a log of the install in /root/acid/acid-install.log.
Compare notes with the rest of the users having issues.
