Tried to install on my production machine and the install hangs at "Starting udev hot-plug detection"
The Motherboard is a ASUS P4P800-E Deluxe w/Intel P4 3ghz 1gb mem
The CD tested ok with "tv testcd" option, and have also used the same cd to install on my test box.
I wanted to eliminate hardware so I tried the R5F27 install cd and it passed that install point with no problem.
I also tried several other install option "tv noscsi" "tv noapci" "knoppmyth noapic" and "knoppmyth acpi=off" but it still hangs at the same place.
Any suggestions?

Does the screen flash as if it's trying to switch video modes at that point? There was s problem with a fb video driver which was eliminated during testing but you may have found a new variant... If it's related, you can often get past that by using a different output resolution...
Also try using the "expert" boot option to see if you can pin it down to what driver is the problem...

During the install (at udev) the screen does not flash. I did try the install with no options, and then with the tv option so I did try it with different output resolutions.
Here is what I do see just before it hangs:
I can see it read the cd a few times then looks like it access the drive and then hangs.
I won't be able to try the expert option until the weekend. But will give that a try. If you have any other thoughts let me know.
Thanks!

tjc,
Tried the install using expert, but it really didn't give me a lot of additional information. I couldn't capture all of the first 80 lines but here's what I got.

Don't know how helpful that will be. If you need the first 80 is there a way to capture them?

The last bit was where I was hoping for more information anyway, but no dice...

tv and failsafe are separate kernels are they not?
I've got a similar mobo and have similar problems. I'm re-burning the CD to see if that helps - since the last time it complained about the disk and dropped me to the minimal shell with ??mod options and mount options. The checkcd went black in the manner that it does with every other option.
I'd like to change the server, but until I know this works with my appletv and what would be my replacement backend which is my current frontend, the WAF wouldn't be into losing all MythTV if replacing the backend fails.

Haven't had a chance to try the failsafe route, but let me know how you make out.
I was also thinking of maybe removing some tuners and see it that makes a difference. I noticed that I have several cards sharing the same interrupts. So am thinking that might be something to try.
I have 4 tuners, 2 HD3000's, 1 PVR350, and 1 PVR150.

K I now have a problem with a M2NPV mobo. For now I'm chalking it up to the CDs, or the burning. But on the new machine I got to the point where the testcd pointed out an anomoly with KNOPPMYTH/KNOPPMYTH.
So I'm only a maybe-has-the-same problem.

I was also having this problem. I got around it by going into "expert" at the boot screen and it would not hang there anymore. Not sure why it mattered but that was the only way I could get around it.

@tscholl - were you able to get it to install?
I'm running into this problem of 'kernel not found' on an old 440BX motherboard. To make matter worse, I'm trying to do the install OVER THE PHONE with someone who isn't computer savvy at all. I'll try the expert option and see how it goes.

Long story short. I'm still working on it. I did get the Upgrade to run but had to remove both PVR cards (a 150, and a 350) to get linux to boot.
The install ran after removing the 150, but Linux would hang on startup.
After removing the 350 Linux booted and I was able to start the configure portion of the install.
Now I'm hosed with not having localhost in the
/home/mythtv/.mythtv/mysql.txt
Managed to get things up and running with the remaining 2 HD-3000 cards and 1 HD-5500.
Also had to make a change to Playback settings, from CPU+ (starting setting after the install) to Normal.
Still won't boot with either PVR cards. Now I need to figure out how to get a remote control.

The saga continues -
I got past the database problem and had the system running with the two HD-3000 cards. I finally had some free time to start looking at the problem again.
I removed all the cards and inserted the PVR 350 and PVR 150 cards in different slots and got the install run without hanging. Then was able to add the HD-3000's back in different slots also got the install to run without hanging.
But still no luck in getting a functional machine. Here is the problem.
With any HD-3000 or HD-5500 card installed along with a PVR card, Linux hangs during startup right after bttv driver loads.
The last few lines are:
Code: lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, major 61 bttv: driver version 0.9.17 loaded bttv: using 8 buffers with 2080k (520 pages) for each capture eth0: No IPv6 Routers present.
At that point the machine is hung, and I can't get into the machine to look at the kernel log. Without the HD card it boots fine.
Any thoughts?

I've been searching the forum trying to find help with a problem I'm having with upgrading to R5.5 and your symptoms here sound very similar to mine.
I have a similar setup as you whereby I've got a mixture of HD and SD capture cards an HD-3000 and a Hauppage 350. These were working perfectly well with R5F27.
The install process worked fine for me, but after installation the kernel hangs. I haven't tried removing any hardware, but I did use the livecd to access the hard drive and removed the saa7127.ko kernel module (with my kernel hang this seems to be the last module attempted to be loaded). The system will boot after that, but without that my 350 is useless. I checked dmesg from the livecd and it seems that it is encountering a stack trace with the saa7127 driver, though for whatever reason it doesn't cause a hang. Does your dmesg show any problems with the livecd?
My livecd dmesg output for the video drivers

boognish,
Never thought of using the boot cd to look at the logs. Great idea thanks!!
I have it back together running with the PVR.
Don't know when I'll get another chance to try it do the WAF. I hope to have some input on what else to try before I give it another shot. She can't live without it.
When I can I'll post the results. But looking at your log I believe my boot sequence has already past that point. I believe I was at that point a few times but was able to get past it by moving cards to different slots.
