Hi Chris,
I don't know enough to know if I'm looking at a kernel panic.
When I try a text install I get what looks like random characters and:
install exited abnormally [1/1]
cntrl-alt-f4 gives me:

Press ctrl-alt-f4. Does it look like a kernel panic? We've seen things
like this before where there's kernel troubles when reading the reiserfs
filesystem.
