I ran into somewhat the same problem with an install, and got the same 
type of irq 11 message, which happened to be for that machine, a USB 
hub.  If I recall right, in order to get the thing to install, I had to 
use the noacpi and a few other commands, but once I figured out what was 
killing things, the install process went ahead.  Realize this is 
probably not much help, but I wouldn't toss the disk just yet.  There 
has to be something that can be done to get it installed.
