No, I think it's a kernel hang because the lights on the keyboard halt and
I can't change to tty2, etc.. I even changed to tty2 and waited to see if
there were some errors but nothing. I've read that "tty8" was the logging
console but no luck also.
BTW, I tried with an IDE disk and the result was the same.

I noticed that the USB Disk was named RootBackup instead of Root... I then
rebooted and chose uninstall and then installed oVirt Node from scratch and
now it worked.
I can't activate Networking because I have that "no hostname" error
mentioned in another post. I think it's related to that...
