I installed Mandriva using mandriva-linux-free-2008-spring-dvd-i586.iso. This is a dual boot setup where Windows XP is on the first disk partition and Mandriva is installed after it.
My hardware is as follows:
-Intel Core 2 2.13GHz
-2 GB Dual Channel RAM
-NForce 680i mobo
-Dual Nvidia 6800 Ultras in SLI configuration
-Dual Seagate 80Gb HDs in Raid 0
During the install I chose to activate the Raid 0 array that it detected, and during the video card setup I chose to setup each device individually.
After the install during the initial OS boot after I chose to boot Mandriva it just hangs at the loading progress bar. I pressed ESC to view the verbose listing, the following is the majority of the output all the way down to where it ends.

The last line above is where it just sits doing nothing. Any ideas?
