Description of problem:
New install for 4 CD set to clean disk, custom selection. When started actual install gave a comment about trouble with disk and that Linux would not know about disk until rebooted. Mentioned that something else may have been using it ! Then install halted. 
2nd attempt worked - but I did not check disk was clean and when it mentions the disk partitions there are three - the one I wasn't ecprecting is vfat size 13.

Dump file is the attachment - if I managed to get it attached.
