I've just received breezy pressed CDs, and have this same problem. The
installation fails during the base system installation, at the point where
linux-386 kernel is to be installed. So whatever problems that are causing this,
are still there in Breezy and the current ShipIt CDs. Might it be that the CDs
are of poor quality (even though they are error-free), and fail with many
CD-ROM-drives? Or is it something that could be fixed on the software side.
Matt, if you have those CDs, please try to find a fix to the problem. It's
serious that people have installation failing even when they order the pressed
CDs. Furthermore, this failure of installation leaves the system in unbootable
stage if tried to be installed besides Windows, as the installer seemingly takes
the "bootable" flag away from the Win partition.
