Do you want this machine to have the ability to boot multiple OS's? Is a version of Windows already installed on the machine? I do know there is an issue with installing 95, 98, or Me. You'll always want to install Windows before anything else.
Are you allowing the 8.0 install to remove all partitions?

Subject: 8.0 install
Hi
I had to attempt to reinstall 8.0 on a machine that had it working before. Looks like i installed too much junk and the x server crashed badly amongst other things.
Here's the problem.
I get to the part where the partitions are to be formated and the installation crashes after it comes to the end of formating the last partition.
Basically nothing will install, i have tried a few different os's.
I might have messed up my disk by fdisking it with a win 95 disk and formating, or my mbr is messed up.
Any ideas ?
Marek
