Well,thanks a lot.MD5SUM checks passed with the " linux ide=nodma"
command.the installation went fine.but after reboot
system has halted at the boot.i opened the system with the rescue
cd,typed grub.set then the correct partitions.but after reboot nothing
has changed.so i rewrote MBR with the Win installation cd(to gain access
at least windows) and *_now waiting for a solution._*
some hints:
*i have chosen custom installation
*i have chosen advanced modification of grub and password protected the grub
*in partition magic it complains about the corrupted partition table and
exits.my harddisk's partition table after install looks like:
Disk: 1 Cylinders: 14593 Heads: 255 Sectors: 63 MB: 114471

the first linux disk is "/" as you can guess.the second one is "/home"
and there is a swap.
*as i have installed it with "nodma" option.can it be the problem.(it is
written in the grub.conf file)
my grub.conf file is like that:
# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file
# NOTICE: You do not have a /boot partition. This means that
# all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /, eg.
# root (hd0,1)
# kernel /boot/vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/sda2
# initrd /boot/initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/sda
