It sounds like you've got yourself a hardware problem. While I can't be
100% certain what exactly it is. At first glance though I see you have a
HUGE amount of RAM. Just a thought though. Try taking one of those 128MB
chips out and then try the install again and see what happens. I'm not
sure I can explain this craziness, I just have a feeling.
