Sorry to hear it. I had my own difficulties (several weeks' worth) in your situation, but not that one. Did you check first of all that you weren't bitten by the problem where the i386 kernel is installed rather than the i686? Jarod does mention it on his page. It might be worth investigating. I thought I was fine at first, then I realized I wasn't.
