I think that the problem is related to the motherboard. O have a ASUS k8v SE. I could install the system but not boot at first. After a bios update it would boot without any problem. I found out that I need one more bios update to fix an intermitten USB problem. I suggest you make sure you get the most recent bios update. By the way this is also a microsoft windows problem for certain moher boards. roach wrote:

Googling suggests problems with SATA and AMD64 combination. I tried disabling SATA mode, but get a non-helpful "Installation error".
Hi,
No problem here when installing 9.2 on similar spec. PC.
Here's the rules I found for a successful install.
- kernel 2.6 - no SATA-->IDE cables - no SATA on the IDE channels (via the BIOS)
You also didn't mention whether you board has RAID. Make sure you have plugged your drive in the right place.
All the best.
