Thanks for your answer. Now, that problem not found. At 79% of installation process (creating user) i get this error:
We're sorry; the installer crashed. Please file a new bug report at

You are getting serious errors on your second hard drive, in many sectors in the part of the drive where you have set your swap partition. The drive may be failing.

How old is this drive? Is there anything else on the drive, such as Vista?
Have you backed up any data on your second hard drive?

I suggest booting off the Mint cd and when you get to the partition section, selecting ' manual ' and running badblocks on the partition in which you want to install Mint. But, if the drive develops more bad blocks after installation, your installation might become unusable. Again, the drive may be on the verge of failing irretrievably.
There are commercial applications available which perform a thorough check of a hard drive, but I haven't used any of them in a very long time. The last one was many years ago, and it was Spinrite.
