3-31-2015-just tried the new mate iso and same thing. Though time time, I did it in virtual reality(virtual box) and used the iso from my hard drive. The first time was from a usb key and installing in reality -- I don't want to mess up my current install because I have it tweaked and peaked for my harware.

This indicates and issue with the package becoming corrupt on your local system or in memory. This is likely due to a hardware error.
