I managed to install it by doing a recommended install instead of a full install. I am clueless however on what makes the full install fail. The DVD I have is clean, I have plenty of room available on my HDD, and the winecfg is programmed properly.
Have you tried a new / blank prefix created with current git wine? I ran into installation failures myself several times that happened because of wine prefix created by previous wine versions.
