A horizontal cursor flashes means nothing to me... If you succeed
installing you should be OK with hard drive. Give more information
(kernel version should appear un GRUB menu e.g., do you use IDE/SATA or
(fake) RAID for install, what hard drive layout did you choose when
installing...)



The same horizontal bar appears when successfully booting the Ubuntu live
CD, though it quickly disappeared. My guess is that it's part of the normal
booting process.

Oh yeah, this is an important detail: grub which was installed on MBR didn't
even appear. It seemed to get stuck right after the self tests. I am not
sure what version of kernel, but I downloaded from AMD64 version of Ubuntu
and Debian just today.

Maybe your BIOS is configured to look at the wrong HDD. That's a very easy mistake to make, especially if all your drives are the same make/model.
