This occurs during the SXCE install gui. After the language is selected, the background changes to a darker solid color and a CDE panel appears at the bottom of the screen.
It does not interfer with the install but it is distracting and probably uses up memory space.
I have attached an image of what the screen looks like.
This is still reproducible in snv_86 for sparc and x86 installs.
This is still reproducible in the latest x86 build and this is the failure in
