All, 
I need some help/ advice.

I have just upgraded my main PC  to a Biostar M7VIG Pro mobo with an AMD
XP2400+ 
256MB DDR memory, USB 2.0, lan and audio on the mobo, and a Nvidia GForce 2 MX
440 64MB AGP video.
The chipset is a VIA KM266.  The hdd is an IBM 80GB Deskstar @ ATA133

The problem....

So far ANY Linux distro that I have tried fails to install.
The RH versions all start the install but fail with a "corrupt media or file"
between 5% and no more then 40% complete.
The RH 9.0 media check is good. 
Other distros all fail in various and very strange ways. 
I have tried the following parms on the boot cmd:  NODMA ;  PCI=bios;  and 
all the redhat suggestions about text, lores, etc. 

The VIA site  implies that the KM266 is supported. 

Help!!! please. 
(p.s. XP pro, of course, works as well as a MS OS can.)

Thanks in advance,
Rich Cottle
