Can you reproduce this? What partitions do you define (and in what order)?
It happens every time I try to install. I haven't gotten to define any partitions. I get to the screen where it asks you what you'd like to do with the hard drive (remove linux partitions, remove all partitions, use existing free space). I select 'remove linux partitions' and click next and thats when the error happens. So far, I've tried to install three times.
Just as an update. I have tried downloading from other mirror sites, burning using different programs (all at slowest write speed possible) and different cdrom media and always get the same error.
What sort of partitioning setup do you have before starting your installation?
