Ok I was successfully able to install 810 using the scripts from the wiki page (http://wiki.linuxmce.com/index.php/LinuxMCE-0810_alpha2).  Everything was working great and I was having no problems.  I went to the LinuxMCE Admin page and from there I selected the Mame check box and it began installing the mame package.  About 30 minutes into the install the power went out and my machine restarted.  It seemed to boot up fine and then I got to a screen that says Installing LinuxMCE-mame-metadata.  There was a ton of activity on my router and I figured it was downloading the packages, but 36 hours later it is still sitting on the same screen, no activity on my router anymore.  Is there anyway for me to manually kill the install from the terminal?  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks!

shawnsdl Thanks for the help.  It installed and is running Kubuntu with no problems after making the changes in the boot options. 

Ok, so here is the scenario.  I have Windows MCE 2005 running great on this setup, but I want to move to LinuxMCE.  I boot using the 7.04 Live CD and everytime about the third step in the install process my machine locks up and stops responding.  It is a good 7.04 Live CD b/c I installed Kubuntu on my laptop using to test it out.  Does anyone have any idea why this is happening?

Here is my setup:
ABIT NF-M2S Mobo
1 AMD Athlon 64 Dual Core 4200+
2 GB OCZ DDR2-800 Platinum Rev 2. RAM
GeForce 8400 GS
2 Seagate Barracuda 80GB SATA drives
1 Sony DVD Drive - don't know the Model     

Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.
