Comment 54 for bug 636711

I would like to give some information. I initially made a live CD on a CD-RW, and it didn't work or even mount. I remade a live CD on a CD-R, and it did work, with all the files showing on the disk and everything. I found that the MD5 checksums match, so there is no problem there.

Now, I have a Dell, and I initially just chose to boot from the CD on the startup screen. It goes through the boot process for a bit, and then ends up with two different sets of messages so far. One of them is as shown in this thread. The other one also included many Input/Output errors, and it goes like this:

Stdin: error 0
Bus error
chroot : can't execute 'debconf-communicate' : Input/Output error
/scrpts/casper-botton/IOadduser: .: line 20
can't open '/root/use/share/debconf/confmode'
grep: /root/use/ii8n/Supported: I/O error
chroot: can't execute /usr/sbin/locale-gen' : I/O error

and it goes on like that for a bit, with many other lines

Hope its some help with understanding whats going on. Then again, maybe it doesn't matter.
