I had the same problem with Kubuntu 7.10 install on a Gateway Solo 9500 notebook. I found that specifically turning off apm (no-apm) at install made it go away. Also turned off PM (power Management) in bios and set Intel Speedstep tech to Auto in bios. Still haven't managed to complete the install but now the CPU fan takes a break when nothing is happenning (i.e. Idle in Install desktop). Doesn't seem to be as mainstream as the other posts but it might narrow the search. Knoppix on the same machine caused no problems and does not require the no-apm switch.
