I did not have access to the Linux installation so I removed all partititions using a boot cd. Formatted the entire hard drive and restarted the installation. The problem is that whenever I try to install, I get a message during setup stating I need a driver of some sort. I think this is because my MBR is toast. I tried to fix this in quite a lot of ways, but have been unable to do so. I can't find a way to get into standard DOS fdisk either, but I don't even know if that would be the solution.
