Install 4.0.b fails at last hurdle

Hi

I've been trying to install 4.0.b on a new Ubuntu 11.10 install.
Using the installer.  Have used both graphical and text mode.
Only installing the alfresco option.  Java, postgresql, etc are unselected.

Install freezes when installation bar reaches 100%.
Had the same problem with 4.0.a and even though the install looked to have been made successfully 4.0.a didn't boot.

I have the following error:
main.tcl: Fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server :0.

I will continue as if I've installed manually since the files are in the directory.  I will update if things work out.

Just wished to update.

Installing with the postgresql option ticked froze at 79% [postgres.bki]
Installing with the 'Easy' option: the install froze at the same point 47% [postgres.bki]

This is with existing postgresql service stopped.

2nd update 28/10
Somehow I managed to get it to work.  But I have some errors relating to solr that I haven't investigated yet.

A couple of things.
I installed from the 'advanced' option without opting for pgsql, java, etc.  This froze at 100%.  I had pgsql running with the alfresco db available during the install.

I changed [alfresco_home]/tomcat/bin/setenv.sh to the following:

JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.26
JRE_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.26
JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Xmx512m"
export JAVA_HOME
export JRE_HOME
export JAVA_OPTS

Ubuntu 11.10 comes with openJDK.  Alfresco doesn't play with openJDK and so I installed the jdk.

That's it for now.  Going to focus next on the solr errors in the log.
