You say the checksums match, so perhaps there something with your VirtualBox setup that is incorrect. The images to boot on real hardware (I have done so), so there is clearly something besides just a bad image going on. I suppose it is possible that the syslinux on the cd isn't compatible with VB on your box, but I would investigate your virtualbox setup first. What are you doing the make the cd image available to virtualbox and how are you trying to boot off the cd? Also, when you say they don't mount, do you mean that even with a working vm (say ubuntu) you can't mount the cd. In that case there is obviously something wrong with the way image mounting is working on your vb system. Can you provide any more information? -- And that's my crabbing done for the day.
