Comment(by kris):

 Well, that explains it all :)

 The seek-failed errors seem to indicate a problem reading from the DVD
 during the file-extraction phase. I bet if you do an install, and run the
 command "dmesg" afterwards before rebooting, you'll see all kinds of
 kernel messages about read failures. I'm thinking this means we have a bad
 disk / drive. When you boot the install DVD, and let it do the full
 integrity check does it pass?
