Scheda,

You _did_ verify that you have sufficient disk space,
right? I recently installed Linux on an old 6 GB hard
drive and forgot to tell it to take the whole drive,
so it only took what was left over after a Win2000
installation (not much was left, obviously), and I got
the same error before the OS finished installing.

Doesn't hurt to double check using df.

Other than that, I don't know ... looks like it's not
the media, unless those CDs won't let you install on a
different Linux box either.

Hardware problems can be a pain to isolate ... good
luck!

Cheers,
Maya
