It's funny as I can't get CD 1 to boot, I have to boot with CD2 and then swap them 
over. Everything is fine then.

    Your iso's are only OK, _IF_ you check them before and _AFTER_ 
burning.  Even then, before I mail sets to friends I make sure 
CD1 boots an proceeds.

    md5sum /dev/hd?    ... and then compare to the appropriate 
md5sum in the Mandrakelinux-10.0-Community-........md5sums.asc

    If they don't exactly match, first place to look is USER 
choices (how did you burn?)... hardware (system, burner, media 
used).

   Is this with an nForce chipset based system? That's also a poor 
USER hardware choice that has many problems. That many problems 
such as this are often reported against.  See cooker archive.
