That's 3.0r1 right?

It sounds like the installer is trying to use a VESA framebuffer mode
with more lines than your screen has available.

At the "boot:" prompt, try typing "vga=0x305" before you press <enter>.
If you're already typing something else, such as "bf24" to install a 2.4
kernel, just add "vga=0x305" to the end.

If that doesn't work, try "vga=0x303" or "vga=0x301".
