sounds like the cd media you burned has an error. this can be caused by a
manufacturing error on the cd. burn another cdrom and give it a try. also,
try not burning at full speed. sometimes people burn disks that are rated
12x at 30x+ and will make cd's that behave like you describe.

Subject: CD Boot Problem
I am trying to install Debian on my computer. I used jigdo to get the iso.
Then I burned the iso to cd. When I try to boot from the cd, the drive
spins up then spins down a lot. Sometimes I get a message from the BIOS
that there was a boot failure. Other times, It starts booting, but then I
get a message from the software on the cd that there was an error and that I
should try again. When I try to access the cd on another os, It is
accessible, but it spins up and down a lot. Also when I try to small text
files on the cd sometimes there is a long delay (45 sec or more). The drive
works well with other cds though. I'm not sure what is wrong.
