Comments/Problems:
System boots from CD and goes through

1) Choose Language
2) Choose Country
3) Choose Keyboard Layout

It then spins up the CD it just booted from but suddenly can't read from or find when trying to mount and copy modules.
After a minute or two I get :
"A problem occured when data was read from the CD-ROM. Make sure it's still in the drive. If you try again and it doesn't work, verify your CD so that it is error free

Couldn't copy from CDROM. Try again?"

At this point all connection to the CDROM is gone. A retry can't find our mount the CD. And verification doesn't work as no reading from the CD occur when chosen.

A reboot boots the machine off the CD but get stuck as above again regardless of 2.4 or 2.6 Kernel.

CD works fine on my desktop though so I don't think the CD is faulty.
