 I didn't realize that olpc-install would run automatically. 

The wiki instructions explicitly say that it needs to be run at the
command prompt.

Maybe we should fix the wiki.

That is odd. 163 is an auto-installer, and it seems to be working
correctly here. Can you check that your image is in good condition?

Not certain about the md module (we are not doing RAID by default, but
we should have it there)

The above is normal.

That is SELinux stuff, which we are not using.

olpc-install should be triggered automatically. Something must have gone
wrong during init - can you check that your image is in good condition,
and attach /var/log/messages , /var/log/anaconda.log and
/var/log/boot.log?
