This happened to me when I reformatted. For some reason, Windows' formatter couldn't figure out how to delete all partitions and format the drive. I had to toss in my Mandrake CD and have drakx take a look at it. It pretty much said WTF, you need to reformat everything before anything will work. This was after "formatting" the hard drive 6 times.
But, Mandrake fixed it and everything went fine after that. What's my point? Get a third party formatter, whether it's fdisk (is that from Windows?) or something lesser known, or linux.
