Perhaps a corrupt iso or burning error?

 

Have you tried redownloading the ISO and burning it at a slower speed, Ive read they like to be burned slow, say 8x-16x

First verify that your download was ok by checking the md5sum.

 

Then burn at 4-8X speed. Slow! Especially if you are using cdrw media.
