Thanks in advance,
If the installer doesn't select the 2.4 kernel automatically, start with bf24 at the boot prompt. Then use cfdisk to partition your disks (use the "linux" type for data and swap for...swap :-), don't bother now for the choice of filesystem). Afterwards you initialize swap, and then you initialize linux partitions, and there you choose between ext3, ext2, or reizer. Note that the 2.2 kernel only supports ext2, so if you don't see the ext3 choice, that's because you booted with a 2.2 kernel.
