    Arrow Installing Kali to hard drive

    I'm trying to install Kali Linux to a a blank 500GB HDD but after the partitioning is done and it begins to install the system it always gives me the error that the files couldn't be installed. I checked the SHA-1 hash and it matches I've tried downloading it as a torrent and as the kali-linux-1.0.5-amd64.iso. neither seems to work, I've tried different brand CD's I've burned the ISO on a PC and a mac still no luck. I've also tried booting into the live CD first then running the installer that doesn't work either. Sys log:
