Ok I just ran the "Verify CD" function and it froze at the following line:-
Checking ./casper/filesystem.squashfs Do I have a bad disk? :-( The installer didn't even get to copying the files this time. I'll try once more tonight and give it another go tomorrow. I've wanted to begin a slow migration to Linux for ages now, but I'd rather be sure of what I'm doing, hence the first install being on an external HD. Hope I'm not causing anyone any grief!
