Same thing happened here today with a daily kubuntu alternate install cd from 20061229.

At first I expected it with the Intel DG965SS board and known issues there with the marvell pata, but then I tried the cd on my Athlon system and it had the same behavior, there was a long delay when it reached the point where it should be mounting the cdrom and just acted like I had removed the media. It was also impossible to mount the cdrom or any media manually and would only say "Invalid option".

I ended up installing Edgy from the athlon system to the new hard drive and dist-upgrading it to Feisty then moved the drive to the i965 system and it worked ok then.
