Here my observations.
My PS3 is latest firmware from Sony (well almost it is not the 2.50, that JUST
came out but 2.43)
I formatted the disc, partitioning etc, so disc should be clean.
Then it boots up on the DVD, and the nice installer begins to do its job. 
BUT at the moment of partitioning, if I do NOT accept the default partitioning,
the partition tool launch to customize partitions and it is not having a good
day, I think some 32/64 bit issue. It is not capable of calculate partitions
larger than 2Gb (two!! Gigabyte). So though the Disc is already limited in the
PS3, 2Gb is pushing it a bit :-). If I change nothing and continue I am back to
the default partitions on the summary screen and can continue.
The error reproduces every time.
