[newbie] Installation

[Carrie]

I'm coming across a problem when trying to install, maybe someone has an 
idea? Here it is:

When I run the installation from a boot disk, i get as far as the kernel 
loading and then it gives me a segmentation fault and says it can't connect 
to something (it went by too fast, I didn't write it down). Anyone have any 
clue what I'm talking about and/or how to get past it???
