CLOOP errors are usually errors with the media or burn process.  i had
this happen a couple times.  either try reinstalling or download a new
image and burn it to disk at a slower speed.  i was able to use the
same cd but had to restart the install a couple times.
KnoppMyth rocks as a Myth distro :)  you really shouldn't have any
problems setting it up if you have good media and you follow one of
the install docs.
