Two things are occurring during the install process. 1) I'm experiencing a graphic corruption problem at the bottom of my scree, which appears at 58% completion.  2) The entire system crashes, causing the computer to reboot. The crash occurs at approximately 78% completion. Otherwise, I've experienced no problems booting or using the LiveCD. I just can't install OpenSolaris to my disk.

I already answered this on opensolaris-help with a pointer to the release notes.

For the Indiana team though: how was Jeff supposed to find the release notes?
I couldn't find a link on the OpenSolaris.org splash page, the OpenSolaris.com
download page, the Opensolaris.com "Learn" page, or anywhere else obvious I
looked.   It was only because I knew they were on the
opensolaris.org/os/project/indiana page that I could even find them.
