Oh my! You have been too patient! (I guess it's the dog.) Have you looked into the consoles 2 to 8, to see if it's really frozen? Gee, I suppose RHEL6 will be worse than Vista!
Might be worth posting on the anaconda-devel list.... or filing a bug with CentOS.
Or... does the same thing happen if you try with a RHEL5 install? If so, you could definitely open a bug report with them to get it looked at.
Would be interesting though to see if your machine is locked up. Try jumping over to the shell console (ALT-F2) and see if you can still interact, get a process list etc. Run dmesg, and look at the other consoles' outputs to see if anything can give you some info on where exactly it's hanging.
