Do your norton emergency utilities include NDD?  Norton Disk Doctor?  One time I tried 
to install SuSe.  Instead  of installing, it wiped out two 2GB partitions on my 
harddrive!  I've never had success installing it on several computers.  NDD fixed my 
partition table, and allowed me to recover all the data on one of the partitions.  The 
other had been overwritten.

Contact me directly if you need ndd.
