all I get is:
INPUT/OUTPUT ERROR and FILESYSTEM ERROR
- it fried my HD -
The last is very unlikely.
What stage have you reached when this occurs? Is it when the partitioner
is starting up or when you have set up all the partitions you want and
try to commit the changes?
Have you tried booting the installer with 'linux26'? That will make the
installer use a 2.6 kernel instead of the default 2.4 kernel.
Can you please give us the exact error messages visible on VT3 (use
alt-F3) or VT4 (use alt-F4) when you see the errors?
