BIOS is upgraded and i am unable to install 6.2 also. When i removed the LSI HBA controller, the boot process has been completed and sysinstall was started. So it look like an LSI HBA issue. I have LSI HBA 1064E. The mpt driver print some error with 6.X but 7.0 and 8.0 doesn`t complain about anything but the boot freezes after acpi_button0: on acpi0, with acpi disabled the boot stops after recognizing CPU0.
