Can you select "View Log" and look if there is any more info at the bottom  
of it (scroll down with cursor or page down). Also, there should be an  
"install.log" in /tmp if that is more convenient.

The installer can currently not act on more than one disk at once. You'd  
have to manually install or first do a standard install and then carefully  
configure the /boot on a separate disk.
