Boot into rescue mode using the CD.  Then fdisk to remove the partitions 
on the drives, write those changes and reboot to the installer again. 
That should get you running... if not then you have something very 
strange happening.  Make sure you have the latest download of the 
BlueOnyx ISO, and check your hardware to ensure no anomalies there.   If 
there's a fake-raid controller, ensure it's disabled.
