Try using Google to search for a solution for the problem. It is most likely that there is a boot command option that will allow you to get up and running. Something like noapic biosirq or something like that.

That looks like you're having problem on hda1 partition.... but don't worry about that.

Download Smart Bootmanager from http://btmgr.sourceforge.net/

You can install on a floppy and it lets you boot from CD even on old machines. After that, just follow the normal DSL HD installation procedures ;)
