@Rick

I can very consistently recreate it on my Sager laptop. It is a Core 2 Duo T9300, 4GB RAM, NVidia 8600M GT video, 80GB Fujitsu HDD. more details can be seen at http://www.sagernotebook.com/product_customed.php?pid=46090 on the specifications tab. I unfortunately do not have access to any other 64-bit hardware that I can test this on.

As far as whether or not bug #217849 is the same issue, it very well may not be, but it certainly seems likely. Both I and Nick were able to make the process move along by "tickling" with keyboard or mouse stuff. In Nick's case above, even the mouse is not used at all by the installer, if KVM treats it as a USB device, moving it over the window would likely cause the USB traffic to wake up the system.

The hiccups I've seen on my fully installed (though not lvm-crypt encrypted this time) system exhibit the same behavior that I saw during the install.
