Problems installing Debian on Compaq Armada M700.



I seem to be having problems installing Debian on my laptop Compaq M700, there seems to be 2 problems:
1) It won't install a boot manager on the HD even though I have a dedicated H.D and even tried to partition a 10MB drive in the beginning of the disk just in case.
2) I can't access the parallel floppy drive which comes with Compaq- It accesses but has problems reading or writing.
 
I boot ok from the CD-ROM and I tried many different partition configurations.
Any ideas? Anyone else encounter this?
Cheers,
