Description of Problem:
After selecting install to unused space the install procedes to creating the 
swapspace partition at 100% complete then hangs. After rebooting into Windows 
and checking PartitionMagic 8.0 I find that the Swapspace partition exists 
using 675.5MB disk space on Disk 0 Partition 3 and available space remaining 
after is 2,172.9 MB.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

How Reproducible:
Always.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot to 1.0 alpha6 CD
2. Select Install to free disk space.
3. Swapspace partition completes to 100% then hangs with no further disk 
activity.
4. CTRL-ALT-DEL does nothing, requires hard boot to restart.

Actual Results:
Installation hangs.
Expected Results:
Installation to complete.
