I get these error messages with the majority of CD's that I have tried, 
I would
get more information if, A) I was told what was needed, B) The system didn't
appear to hang on me.

I've tried CD's that have been burnt (and have been used several times to
install FC on other machines), Audio CD's and application CD's all of them
result in the same thing happening.

I do not beleive this behaviour was present in I think FC1, but has been the
case since FC2.
