Hi,
Thanks for the thought.
This morning I tried installing on 4 different HDs, the 5th attempt I 
plugged in a 1TB SATA3G drive onto a SATA6G port and it failed just like 
the rest, so I emailed my above query.
Wanting to create the log files you suggested, I hit "reset" (after a 
couple of hours just leaving the system hanging), and now it worked.

I can't imagine why the other 5 attempts failed, but for the moment no 
problem to report.

The install in but young. (Drat, not allowed to leave trailing dots 
according to list guidelines :-)  )

Thanks any & regards,
Zoltan
