You need to use Alt-F2 to see which driver is hanging. Also, if you
needed an updated kernel and/or drivers to get the boot diskettes to work,
you need to be sure that the expected versions got copied on to the boot
drive. Keep in mind you are using an installer that was implemented in
the mind '90s. It may need some help to do the right thing in 2003.

Some NICs will allow you to override this, although it gets very
interesting if you do this and have two NIC with the same address on the
same network.

I'm not sure what the defaults are. I have needed them in the past for
"special" servers. Some Netware admins did strange things.

You will want NetBIOS if you are going to use the Peer LAN networking or
if you are going to run a CID server.
