Hi Shane,

It would be nice if you could extract /var/log/syslog when the hang
happens.

I can see the syslog by alt-f2 when it freezes, but it will not save anywhere permanent because the setup iso is un-writable. I have it actually on a usb so it should not be physically impossible, but my efforts at remounting writable have failed. Any hints appreciated.

i just want to say that i have an atheros killer e220x network card
and its acting very unstable. Especially on the new kernel 4.0.4. I
dont have any netinst problem or whatever but every X seconds the alx
driver hangs/drops. The la driver is currently unstable, it might be
related or not but i am getting fed up with this.
