Unable to install on my laptop

[LeO]

I've downloaded 5.04 and I wanna install Ubuntu, but obviously it fails.

I have a Pentium II with 256 MB (quite old, but worth to try) and it fails with
messages like: (I would attach the complete log, but since I don't know how to
retrieve from laptop, no idea). Additional comment: I install the whole process
without proper Network-config due to direct connection between two computers and
not knowledge about how to retrieve the IP-Address (without DHCP).

This indicates an I/O error reading from the CD. Try burning at a lower speed,
or with different media, or using an official pressed CD (shipit.ubuntu.com).
