Hm. I take it back about the problem not existing in Oneiric - I wiped the machine and reloaded clean with Oneiric Server, and am encountering the same bluescreen during installation at the same place. This may be related to the hardware platform - I *JUST* did several of these installs onto Intel i7 and AMD Opteron machines this week, but this particular host is an Athlon X3-based machine.

Maybe there's a bug related to the hardware? I don't think it's actual *faulty* hardware; the problem is too consistent and only occurs during guest installation - also, I've switched from a ripped ISO image (which worked fine for previous installs) to reading /dev/sr0 directly (from a different disc, yet) and got the exact same bluescreen.

Retrying yet again with a non-SP1 Windows Server 2008 disc at /dev/sr0 now to see if the results are any different.
