... and it all goes downhill from there. That is, the system fails to
read from the CD - at that point there's not a lot the installer can do
since its own code is read from the CD! (Future kernel versions will
detect this better and it'll probably show up as an I/O error rather
than a segfault, though.)
This particular error is often due to a faulty CD/DVD disk or drive. It
may help to clean the CD/DVD, to burn the CD/DVD at a lower speed, or to
clean the CD/DVD drive lens (cleaning kits are often available from
electronics suppliers).
