Depending on how old the hardware is, I have had success with older
machine installs by using "linux ide=nodma" during the
install.

Installation Problem
I had the same error with a 32b version. Do
you install from CD? If so the cd you use might be bad. I tried to
do network install and it worked (well, I had a different error and I still
haven't installed the os, but that's different story). If installing
from net is not good for you for some reason, try to burn the cd
again.

Problem
I got the following error while trying to
install the 64 bit version:
FATAL ERROR IN STAGE1 I/O Error
It says it can't recover and I should
reboot?
Any help would be
great.
