I had a similar thing happen to me on my iMac G4 trying to install 10.3/10.4. Eventually I found that as I'd had a Kernel Panic (duff RAM) during the first install attempt I have to zero the hard disk and then attempt the install again. This cleared any corrupt data on the drive that I assumed was interfering with the subsequent installs. When you boot from the 10.3 disk choose Disk Utility from the menu then zero all data, set-up your partitions and re-attempt the install.
