Same problem with ubuntu-10.04-alternate-i386.iso (tried multiple CD-Rs, albeit of same brand). Maddeningly intermittent and then not, as #51 notes: I was able to install just fine on this machine last week, and now that I'm reinstalling from scratch the installer loops endlessly with the message:
=== Please insert the disc labeled: 'Ubuntu 10.04 LTS _Lucid Lynx_ - Release i386 (20100427.1) in the drive '/cdrom/' and press enter. Media change === Go Back, Continue, Changing the disk etc are all ineffective. Looks like an endless loop. I have restarted the installation 3 times now and it always gets stuck in the same spot.
