Thanks for the update. Here are a few things you can try...

- When you get to the Live CD Boot menu, select the "Check Disc for Defects." Hopefully this will run and check the CD for problems. If you get the same error, then try...

- Burning a CD with the slowest speed setting. Sometimes burning the disc at a high speed setting causes errors to occur in the burning process. If that doesn't work, then you can...

- Try burning with a different program (at a low speed setting again). Brasero is the default in Ubuntu, but some users have had trouble with this program. K3B is a popular option.

Of course, you always have the option of using a Flash drive with at least 1GB of space on it. In order to do that, just go to System -> Administration -> USB Startup Disk Creator. From there, simply select the .iso file for the top menu, then select your USB drive in the bottom menu. If your USB drive needs to be formatted, it would be best to close the USB Startup Disk Creator, right-click the icon on your desktop for the USB drive, then click "Format." Selecting the FAT format is usually the safest option. After you format the USB drive, then proceed with the USB Startup Disk Creator.

Hopefully this helps you. Sorry you encountered an error. Please feel free to let me know if you have any other questions.
