Must've missed the option to reselect. Now I'm having another issue. I reloaded with the ISO again and when it asks me to enter my master password, it stops or lags or something after ~5 characters I think and then I have to hit enter 3 times and it spazzes out. Trying again now...
It did this too:

Just did a complete reload and I still can't get it to take anything I enter and if I hit the arrow keys or the delete key, it throws me to a black screen with a white bar across the bottom that says CentOS 6.2 but just hangs there.
Yet again another reload and I just chose to let it give me a password and that worked fine. And there isn't an option to make changes on the confirmation screen that is apparent. See screenshot below.

Finally completed the latest install but now it won't take my password that I let the setup wizard generate. Thoughts?

by the way I would recommend you drop to the cli prior to running piafdl and type

rpm -e readahead

We remove this after the install of asterisk.

I would do that but I just chose to let it proceed and it has finished installing now. Upon the last reboot after installer completion, it wouldn't take the password that the installer generated at all so I have to use single user mode to reset it. Have you had that problem?

Thanks to rossiv we have added extra verification steps to the configure module for both red and purple. Originally they were supposed to be in there however we did not receive positive feedback from out beta testers originally as "There were too many steps". All new installs with now have these extra steps plus the user will now have to actually READ the screen in order to proceed. Yes the user will have the ability to change everything over and over before they proceed. Unfortunately the password is one exception although it already has built in methods to reset passwords

for example you can keep regenerating the randomized password until you get one you like. In the manually entered password you can simply not enter the same password twice in a row and it will reset things.

We added an extra information screen that details what the password portion does in "PAINFUL DETAIL" (c) (tm) and then the user has to match a randomly generated 3 digit code to show they agree and understand.

This is on all new installs and has been pushed out to the developers repo NOW. It can take up to 24 hours for the other mirrors to get it. If you just have to have it now do the following:

1. Install a fresh copy of Centos 6.2 from our 2.0.6.2.1 ISO
2. At the screen where you would normally choose red or purple simply exit to the cli
3. log in as root
4. type piafdl -d




Good luck with the extra steps
