Error installing SL on GA-G31M-ES2L Rev 2.0

Hello all,

Having issues on my board installing SL. I am using the guide from <http://www.lifehacker.com.au/2009/09...art-to-finish/>. Also I should warn that I am fairly new to the community so bear with any noobness on my part. This is a clean install on a unformatted HDD using retail DVD with image and bootloader on USB.

My system seems to constantly get stuck right after

ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin: ushCPU_CstData - _CST Evaluation Failed.

I have tried a variety of things including starting in safe mode, cpus=1, acpi=off, etc but keep getting stalling up on the same spot. Here is a photo of the error. It looks like it gets held up right on that...

Also my system is as follows:
CPU type:Intel® Core™2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.40GHz
Motherboard: GA-G31M-ES2L Rev 2.0 (does not support AHCI)
ATI Radeon HD 4850, 512mb
240 gig SATA HD
4 gigs Samsung ram
LG Super-Multi DVD/CD R/W

Any advice or tips would be helpful. This stuff gets frustrating!
