I'm trying to install Lenny on a Dell Power Edge 2970 with little success.
The problem I'm running into is installing grub. My .iso images check with
md5sum correctly. With three different DVDs, I get the error:

Unable to install grub in (hd0)
Executing 'grub-install (hd0)' failed This is a fatal error.

[...]

Lets have a look at your /boot/grub/device.map


I didn't look at that, but now when I try to mount /dev/sda1 it's
telling me it is an invalid filesystem. Fdisk shows nothing now.

This gets more frustrating as it goes along.
