I am doing a fresh install with the alternate 64 bit image. The installation is at the "Finalizing the Installation" step and is stuck at 26% while setting up users and password.

Any ideas what is going on if any? Should I wait or start over? It has been at 26% for over an hour.

It shouldn't take that long.
Did you burn the cd on a low speed?
Did you check the cd before you ran it?

I did check the CD for defects before starting.

After about 2 hours it finished. I don't know what it was doing. I suspect it had to do with encryption.

If you experience this... hang in there... its worth it.

But like you said...it shouldn't take that long.
