Steve,

Dave's suggestion could work.  Check the 9fans archive for the link to 9atom.iso.gz.

In the install instructions there is mention of IDE/ATAPI drive settings that you might want to look through.  I recently had an issue where I too had to explicitly set the CD/DVD drive as a "Secondary Master" and then instead of:

	boot from: sdC1!cdboot!9pcflop.gz

I used:

	boot from: sdD1!cdboot!9pcflop.gz

After that the install went smoothly.
