Partitioning the harddisk manually should work. Delete the second 
partition hda2 (if this is where you want to install linux) and 
add a swap (~ 128 MB) and one or two Linux Native partitions. 
I installed linux RH61 from PCQ-CD with 8.4 GB Disk with one 4GB 
partition for WIN98 and rest for Linux half an hour back.
