Hey, sorry I didnt specify. I dont know if anyone is going to be able to help me, but its Lindows... Its a bootup disk so you can install like XP would.

Never used lindows but if you bought the software. Why not e-mail their support team.

Yeah, I was hoping I wouldnt have to resort to that.. I think I'll just wait for my new drive and see if that works.. for some reason

I cannot remember the error but I had a problem with Redhat and a very old 8 gig WD drive. I had to place a kernel arguement of ide=nodma to get past the hda check for the install and boot.

So, from the comand line boot install. The command was "linux ide=nodma" and the kernel arguement entered during the install phase was "ide=nodma".

That might help.
