Just to start with since you haven't given much information. Do you have any free space on your hard disk where you are trying to install linux?
If yes, how much space. Is your cd working fine.
And lastly, if you can do get hold of some newer distro like Fedora Core 5 or Suse 10.1 or even Mandrake 2006.0. Or you can order Ubuntu/Kubuntu from shipit.ubuntu.com for totally free. The next version of Ubuntu will be coming out on 1st of June as of the information I got.

Looks like you have allocated less amount of space for / ..
