This is the latest attempt. I attempted to install 7.04, 6.06, and 7.10 with similar results.
This is the result of trying to install 7.10. Disks are partitioned and formatted ext3 I received similar errors before I installed SUSE 10.3 SUSE installed itself on the SATA drive. Ubuntu would not install itself on any drive. There may be data on the drives from running Knoppix, if it does not clean up its files. There was data on the drive (C drive I think) from saving it while running parted-magic. This is after I installed SUSE.
