Hi,

I'm trying to install oVirt node 2.5.5-0.1.fc17 and it is node going 
well. I'm trying to install it on a Dell blade M610 via a iDrac, and I'm 
quit accustomed to this kind of thing.

- As I already had the issue of the label on the grub boot line, I knew 
how to specify /dev/sr0 or sr1 on the linux line. Well.
- The install is ok with discovering my hard drive, and the installation 
seems to be fine. After rebooting, the bott process is leading me to the 
login prompt where the documentation tells me to log as 'admin' with the 
correct password :

The keyboard is not responding, I can not even type the user name.
I can't change of console, no network activity is seen.
There does not seem to be a kernel panic, as some additional log lines 
are displayed (about the creation of bond interfaces).

I also see some more lines about "systemd-readahead-collect : failed to 
open pack file: read-only file system"...

When downloading the iso install file from the oVirt repo, I choosed the 
smalest one, not the "live" one. Did I did wrong?

Anyway, now, what are my options?
