Are you bombing out during the install, or are you able to install on this
box, but drop to busybox at boot?

If you're bombing during the install, I found that on the machine where I
was having this problem, installing on less than 4 gig ram got through the
install and the ahci/noacpi hack at boot time got it going. I still see the
Softreset... message in the boot log, but there have been no performance
issues running on a RAID 10.

HTH,
