I am attempting to install Fedora on a 6gb HD, but get error "Failed to Load Image, there may be insufficient disk space."

The HD is partitioned as 100mb Boot, 5gb / and 500 SWAP.

The installation I am selecting is Personal Desktop.

Any suggestions?

Turned out the partitions were not being formatted proerply, I wiped the drive (used FDISK from an old Win98 boot disk), formatted and then re-ran the Fedora installation. Worked perfectly from there.
