This is the second bare metal install. Same thing happened before. In fact, in between, I did an install of Mint KDE 17 and experiended the same thing. After that happened, I zeroed the drive with dd and started again with this install, but experinced the same results.
If it's related at all, I did comment out the b44 Broadcom blacklist from this post:
http://forum.mepiscommunity.org/viewtop ... 27#p353027
and also did the interfaces edit from the manual:

Any ideas?
