Then you shouldn't have been able to install the base system at all,
as you wouldn't be able to access the disk, right?

Maybe it is for the bootable CDs.

Try the other kernel (from /install) by booting it with boot.bat,
lodlin, whatever) and enter Linux root=/dev/sda1 (or whatever your
root partition is) and see if this works. Then compile your own
kernel.
