After further investigation, and attempting to get my system working
again, I have discovered the following -
The bug I described above, occurs exactly the same in the final release
of Ubuntu alternate version 8.10 (Intrepid), just with the relevant
words for that version -
So during the phase -
> Installing the base system
it gets as far as -
78% "Gathering information for installation report..."
Then a window pops up showing the following -
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[!!] Install the base system
Please insert the disc labeled: 'Ubuntu 8.10 _Intrepid Ibex_ -
Release i386 (20081028)' in the drive '/cdrom/' and press enter.
Media change
<Go Back> <Continue>
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HOWEVER going back one more version to -
Ubuntu 8.04.1 LTS alternate i386 CD install
I can install on to the same hardware without the above fault that occurs on
8.10 (Intrepid) and 9.04 beta (Jaunty).
