Okay lets try this again, this time with just a little more information. =)
Here's the problem I am having.  This occurs on all the flavors of the latest stable release root disks.  Basically when the root disk loads up into the install menus, specifically the first release notes window and the driver setup window, if I scroll down with the keyboard the system will show a black line in the middle of the window and then *hang* the system up to dry.  I booted off floppies, I booted off a FAT32 disk with loadlin, and even ran memtest82 to see if I had memory probs.  I bumped my clock back down to spec(celeron 300a) none of which seems to be working.  I have installed debian in the past so I am assuming its an issue with the latest release.
 
Now for the system specs;
ABIT BM6
Celeron 300a OC'ed to 450MHz
128Megs PC100 SDRAM
UDMA66 IDE Controller Card
ATI AGP Rage Fury 32Meg
ATI All in Wonder TV PCI
2 CDRoms
1 HP Travan Tape Drive
SB AWE64 PCI
 
And now for dmesg;
