Binary package hint: debian-installer

Hi all,
        I downloaded the 7.04 beta using bittorent. The first time I installed it, it installed without any issues. I checked the md5sums given at the site, with a checksum software which I've at my end. http://www.slavasoft.com/?source=HashCalc.exe . Also bittorent reported as a clean thing. Then before installing, I checked the CD for defects. I re-formatted the partitions as I'm aware of the bug https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/partman-partitioning/+bug/94647 . No guided partitioning, it was all manual. It's a text-based install (no oem install or F6 expert install) , it proceeds to install the base system & installs it successfully. But the next phase where it starts installing the rest of the software packages, it waits at a couple of places for long -time, then jumps, then around at 24-25% it jumps to 86% & says the installation package failed at select & install software. I burnt a second CD thinking there might be some burn issues or something like tht but still the same error is re-produced.

 It does ask me to save the logs but as I'm not so wise don't know how to save it. If somebody can provide me instructions for the save, anything else I might not have looked at, feel free to ask. Thnx in advance.
