Linux Won't INSTALL?


Ok, so i have tried over and over again trying to install linux on my pc, but it always stops in the boot process, i have gone through all the Linux distributions and none of them would work out, it always says something about the kernel, i am settling with fedora core right now,(I mean i wont try to install anything else)
***This is the screen i am stuck in right now

<0>Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
<1>BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffffd370 printing eip:

The hdd is very new, barely bought it two days ago, so i doubt that is the problem

...just from your output, the virtual address sounds like HDD error having bad sectors (an error appears at data source or destination)

-can you check the disk media? Fedora usually runs a disk test before installation

-check HDD mfg for low-level formatting tools (uhm scsi disks are very fixable, because of extensive use in servers, but sata disks?)

I have installed Linux on probably a dozen machines. There was one machine that I could not install it on. I don't recall the problem / error messages / whatever. I threw 2 or 3 different distros at it and ran out of time.

If your computer will run a liveCD (have you tried one?) then I would say your best bet would be to do google searches on the error message, and then separate searches on your specific computer (including model numbers) and linux install. See if other people had the same problem as you are having, and if so, what they did.

Did you repartition your hard drive or something because whenever I have used linux I have never go an error like that unless Grub couldn't find the kernel I was looking for. Usually Linux distros like FC or Ubuntu are so easy to install a windows user could do it. Check to make sure the partition types are correct.
