Public bug reported:

Using Ubuntu 8.10 alpha5 64 bit.

When attempting to install from alternate CD, the installer fails to
mount the cdrom. A dialog allows manually choosing a driver, but the
only option is 'cdrom'. Running 'check cd media' results in the same
thing.

Using the desktop installer, it locks up badly, killing the display and
requiring rebooting the computer from the reset switch.

I have re-burned the install ISO using two different brands of media.
Ubuntu 8.04 mounts the cdrom without any issues.

Hardware :
BIOSTAR TPower I45 LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard
Plexstor slot loading DVD-RW E-IDE
