Bug Description

5.10 Breezy, DVD version

Instalation freezes at the 'configure timezone' step. There is only a blue
screen, the CPU cooler get's noisy which means CPU is running at full throttle.
All previous steps went smooth.

I chose Poland, PL_pl, Polish keyboard, connected to Internet without dhcp, use
PCMCIA. No custom parameters for any module, no CDROM tweaking. Allowed packages
to be copied to my HDD to speed up instalation. The root partition is 3 GB
reiser. Four other are ntsf, swap and two ext3.

I've tried to use default English locale with Polish keyboard, and it worked.
Could the locale be a reason of the instalation failure?

The hardware is Fujitsu-Siemens laptop Amilo 1437G.

I've been also running Hoary on the samed machine in English locale, mostly OK,
nothing seriously bad happens.
