It may be that your CD drive does not like DMA enabled.
Could you try switching to VT2 (alt-F2) and the do the following:
# cat /proc/ide/hdc/settings
(You may need to replace hdc if that is not your CD drive.)
Check the value for "using_dma". If it is 1, do the following:
# echo "using_dma:0" >/proc/ide/hdc/settings
if it is 0, echo "using_dma:1" instead.
Switch back to the installer using alt-F1 and try again.
