    Broken download probably. Also, make sure you burn the CD at slowest speed. You can check the integrity of downloaded ISO image with md5sum.

    Hello and welcome to the forums!

    I agree that it sounds like a bad download or bad burn to disk. You can check this HowTo for the steps to properly download and burn the ISO file to disk as an image:

    Post back if you continue to have problems after following the HowTo.
