Chris, here is a matrix chart. From what I am reading, you need to go to
an intermediate release before going to V8.

Check your firmware levels as well.

I have a 7042-CR6 that WAS running 7.7.3 or their about.

I put in a recovery disk for 8.840 and booted. Wiped the current system
and performed an install.

It errored out after about 30 minutes and went to the command line.

Tried a second time and received the same results.

Now booting off of a 7.790 DVD and it appears to be going.

I totally expected to build the HMC from scratch and I did document the
networking and passwords.

Do you think my media was bad? Should I re-download the ISO images for
V8.840 and burn a new DVD?
