William,

It should work on an 800MB hard drive which leads me to believe that 
there is a problem with your installation media and not with the hard 
drive space.  Have you done the CD integrity test?  If so, do you know 
that the CDROM works?  I've had copy/install problems that Anaconda made 
sound like hard-drive problems but they were really caused by CDROM 
drives that weren't working properly.  Replacing the CDROM allowed these 
systems to install fully. 

If you try that and it doesn't work, you could also have a hard-drive 
problem (bad blocks) kind of stuff...
