Yep. During the installation.

You know what, I've been thinking along the same lines. The system
in question has had nearly every version of SunOS and Solaris
installed on it that has been released in the last ten years.
But, maybe, just maybe, there's something wrong with the CD drive
or the SCSI controller and Linux isn't as tolerant as SunOS and
Solaris. I've already tried installing on a different disk, but
to no avail.
Any thoughts on this? Could this be a plausible explanation?
Thanks,
