10.04 Server Install Fails

[rshol]

Attempting to install 10.04 Server on an IBM Series X 232 server. Its an old server with dual p III's, 4 small drives and an adaptec controller with a RAID 5 array. The server is currently running CentOS 5.5.

The CD I am installing from is known good. I verified it after I wrote it and verified it again during the install process. The system boots from the CD, I accept the defaults, then it fails at "adding additional components". Any clues gratefully accepted.

I have this same problem with an IBM xseries 220. It came with Win2003 server fully operational, Ubuntu server 10.4 failed every time at "adding additional components." tried previous versions of Ubuntu server and they all had same error. Debian and Ubuntu desktop install properly without any errors, but I'd like to try Ubuntu server out.
