Are you using an AFD (Advanced format disk) and if so, are partitions aligned on 4k boundaries?

Edit: Reading back over the thread - looks like I got off on performance and missed the point. If you can't install the format is a moot point. :-/

Can you try booting from a 6.2 LiveCD/DVD and provide more information about your system by running "./getinfo.sh" and showing us the output file?
