OK, this 7300 is starting to piss me off.

I installed the CD-ROM drive on the slow SCSI line - yay - problem 
solved. Now The installer won't write to the hard disk. I have a nice 
clean 1.84GB partition (a good 650MB to spare after installation) 
ready to install OS X Server to and it seems the installer is having 
a little trouble. When I start the install (having selected the 
partition which is recognised by the installer) It sits at 
'Preparing' and the hard disk light flashes on and of accompanied by 
a regular click but it seems to get nowhere fast. The hard disk is 
NOT DEAD, I have tested it thoroughly and it boots OS 9.1 fine and I 
was able to initialize the OS X Partition and copy files to and from 
it perfectly well. Is my SCSI on the fritz??
