2005 Cluster Install Error

I'm having problems installing 2005 Ent on my Win 2003 SP1 2 node cluster.
Please note this cluster has a SQL 2000 (SP4) virtual server/instance already
installed. I would like to run them side by side.

installing using the setup wizard I get error about the schedule task
failing to start on the 2nd node. Looking through the log files the setup
program on the 2nd node has thrown an exception error, core.log shows this:

I've trying to work around it I have tried installing from the command line.
This gets much further with setup starting correctly on both nodes. I get as
far as installing the actual SQL Server Service instance then I'm thrown an
error. Summary.log shows:

In the GUI you get asked for Domain Groups for each service, the
documentation for the command line installer doesn't tell me what the
parameters are for this. Do I need them, is the documentation missing
something?? Also I'm not too sure what the ADMINPASSWORD= paramater is for -
I'm putting in my domain password currently - again teh documentation isn't
too hot for this.

I'm running out of ideas. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know!

Thanks
