        Try partitioning the disks 'by hand'.
        Try running 'linux rescue' from the boot disk. Then use parted/fdisk
    to partition your disks as you like, reboot and then try installing with
    manual partioning and just select where each partition should be mounted.
    In the 'rescue mode' you get 4 text consoles with a lot of tools. I do
    partition my disc 'by hand/parted/fdisk' before I install in most cases.
    I have 2 new 120G hdds here, but I only added them to the system after it
    was installed. There are no problems working with them with RH9/FC1.
    btw: One 120G partition slowed down the system (RH9)...
