You might want to make sure all system caching and rom shadowing is turned
off for the duration of the install.  Turn them all back on when you're
done.  On some pc's I've installed on having them turned on during install
hasn't been a problem, but just last week I came across a pc that wouldn't
get past the boot diskettes without turing off caching.
