Master node install stops during "performing post install configuration"

[Chris Richard Adams]

I entered the eth1 data manually when it presents both eth0 & eth1, then
I noticed it presents the same info (i think the same info) as default
in the following install window.  I'll leave all eth1 data blank and see
what happens.

Thanks...
