Could you enter "memtest86" at the boot prompt on the CD to run a memory test program? Let it run for multiple cycles and post your results.
I have allowed the test to run over an hour (1:14 and a few seconds). Four (4) passes 0 (ZERO) errors. I chose to allow Linux choose the partitions and their sizes. I tried a motherboard IDE SCSI controler and have changed to an standard IDE controler. No differance.

FYI - I went through the Media check on the DVDs and CDs (last set of each) - Media checks good
