Could this be related to a problem I am having with SL 6.2?  After 
install, there is no boot menu and the system just hangs.  This is on a 
software RAID1 with 3 drives (2 active, 1 spare).

Just wondering.  I might try SL 6.3 once it is released.   SL 6.2 will 
simply not boot unless I reconfigure and launch it from my CentOS grub 
config setup, and then it is extremely unstable and had problems dealing 
with my whole RAID setup.   Under CentOS 6.x, I have had no such 
difficulties.
