Well it's pretty clear that it's a bad burn, and the fact that it
happened twice indicates a problem either with the .iso or with your
burner. Did you verify the .iso's md5 output? If the md5 checked out,
then about all I can suggest is that you try it with a different
burner.

FWIW, I picked up a DVD burner a few weeks ago for around $80 (and a
spindle of 50 DVDs for $20). As long as you don't insist on 16x+
speeds (which are pretty much unnecessary anyway) or a dual-layer
capable drive (which means paying a lot more for dual-layer discs),
prices are very low.

Good luck.
