i had a similar problem once. I think it turned out to be a problem with the partition table.

The distro installs without problems, but dies at setting up the Grub bootloader. I tried using the SuperGrub boot disk but that didn't seem to work either. I am going to try booting a live cd and try to install it manually, but I don't think I'll have much luck.
