I have tried downloading and burning the gutsy alpha 2 i386 desktop CD. This time I was quite careful to do the MD5 sums and verify the disk after burning (and before installing). I did see it lock up once before the install. It only happened in normal (as opposed to safe graphics) mode.
I will try it a few more times and see if I can replicate. I suppose it's possible that I have a hardware problem if no one else is seeing this.
