iSeries: Installation seems to hang

Support knowledgebase (iseries_inst_hang)

Symptom:

The installation seems to have hung while installing packages.

Solution:

This apparent "hang" is caused by the data from YaST2 overflowing the buffer being used to transfer data from the Linux console to telnet for the virtual console. To fix this the user can press the "tab" key or any other key. This will refresh the buffer and installation will continue. Work is being done to provide a permanent fix for this problem.
