There's an organization that re-spins install images with updates included, but I can't recall where they are. You can search the archives of this list to find them. Does your BIOS offer a compatibility mode for the ATAPI/IDE controller? If so, give that a try. I had a similar problem with a ThinkPad T61 and that solved the install problem.
