Uh, the first two statements are confusing and possibly contradictory.
Did you try
A. Booting from a HD install and it failed, or
B. Booting from a LiveCD and it failed, or
C. both.
If it's both, I'd suspect the ISO is bad, and download another. If you can boot from the LiveCD, but it hangs while copying the files to to HD as part of the installation process, and then won't boot the HD, I'd double check the commands and make sure you're following them exactly.
Some of these instructions are easy enough to goof up. Just yesterday I was doing an install to a USB drive, and missed on one step. It completely screwed the install.
