Can you please post the logs of this attempt. Without any logs it's hard
to tell why it failed. The logs you previously posted really look like
it's a hardware issue. Maybe it was not the motherboard which is at
fault after all. If the logs still contain similar kernel errors like:

I suggest you also run a comprehensive harddisk test with some testing
tool like badblocks from a Live CD or from a testing CD provided by your
hardware vendor. Just to be sure that the hardware issue is indeed fixed.
