This install doesn't work for me either.  

It starts to go bad at step G
when it doesn't move to the next step after completing "Select Linux
Kernel".  It returns go step G whether I select copy the kernel or
compile the kernel.  Then it complains when I try to install a boot
loader since it doesn't think Step G is completed.

Minor Point:  No feedback when selecting udev.  System just seems to
freeze until step completed.

Tells me to select a root password, but never gives me the option.

Allows me to create a user, but never asks for the password.

Doesn't boot after the install.  Seems the bootloader is not installed.

Still troubleshooting that part.
