Luke, I appreciate your comments.  Your comments on the noapic make sense.  I 
guess my problem is with the Welcome to ArkLinux screen which tells you to 
type "nousb" to load the nousb image if your having problems with the 
installer.  I didn't have a usb mouse or keyboard so I tried it.  The second 
recommendation instructed me to type "noapic acpi=off" to load a noapic image 
with an acpi=off option.  There doesn't appear to be a noapic image.  Bad 
instructions?

I have checked the md5sums against the images that I have downloaded and they 
are good.  I have reburned the cd and it does the same thing.  I'm not saying 
that the installer is completely broke.  I am stating that the installer is 
unable to install arklinux on my paticular configuration and that is a 
problem.  I was able to install Fedora 1.0 without any device issues.  I 
believe that the hardware is in good working order, but it may not be 
compatible with the arklinux installer.
