Remote mounts can cause installation problems

[CR #350984] If you have a remote mount on your Linux box and the machine has stopped responding or has removed your privileges to view the disk, the installation may hang right before the Summary window displays.

If the installation hangs terminate the installation and perform the workaround.

Workaround: Before you begin the installation:

  1. Use cd to access each remote mount point, and execute:

    df -k
    
  2. If the command hangs, unmount that directory before beginning the installation.

Once you check each remote mount point, you can perform the installation. When the installation is complete, remount any directories you unmounted before performing the installation.
