Sorry about the lack of information guys, heres a few more details first, I am using a SCSI drive, not ide, so its not that.
and I get the installer to run clear until the package installation. The hard drive is even paritioned and formatted. I am positive its scsi related though. I'll get my bootx stuff up here asap, but I'm already late for class, so I gotta run.
