It appears your CD is bad - please check your CD set by booting the installer with the command line 'linux mediacheck' and go through the tests.
I ran the 'linux mediacheck' and after it checked the whole CD it came back with 'PASS'. It didn't report any errors at all.
By the way, I appologise if it was inappropriate of me to set the status of this bug to ASSIGNED. I wasn't sure if after I gave you the info I needed to somehow change the status. (It's my first time using Bugzilla.) Anyway, I just thought if I oversteped myself I would appologise. I know you guys are busy.
No problem :) Did you test all the CDs? Or did your install just need one CD?
I just checked the first CD as it hasn't ever asked me for any others yet. (I haven't got past the first. :-) I'll check the others and get back to you.
I ran 'linux mediacheck' across all 3 disks and the all PASSed.
What next?
I still believe this is a media/CD drive related issue. Could you try burning the CDs again, at a slower speed perhaps? The program is dying because it cannot run a program (mkswap) from the CD.
