This reminds me of MY exploits with Mandrake 9.1 and 9.2.

9.1 would install perfectly while 9.2 would crash and burn.

After considerable inconvenience over a years time I finally figured out that 
because I had purchased 9.1 from Mandrake I had a DVD disk which would 
install just fine but I had purchased 9.2 at a local retail outlet and as 
such received CDs which would sometime install 99.9% but corrupt 0.1% which 
resulted in a system that would run but just not correct.
