Bug#246948: Installation report

DMA is enabled on computers where installation succeeds (a Pentium III 733 and 
a Pentium M 1500), but not on the one where it fails.

Although the symptoms are very close, I don't think I have the same problem 
since DMA is disabled on my old computer.

Moreover, it wouldn't explain why integrity test fails on all my computers. I 
do really think there is a path problem, or something related.

Thanks,
Nicolas
