Run "chmod 755 RedHat/instimage/lib/* RedHat/instimage/usr/bin/*"
and recreate your iso... it doesn't currently have permission to
execute the second stage installer, so it will stick right after
the keyboard selection... if you take a look at your other consoles
at that point (alt-f4 i believe is the one) you will see a message
concerning the second stage installer, and "permission denied".
