Are you installing from floppies?
I believe that this happened to me about 8 times (!) while doing my
install from floppies.
It means that your disk is screwey, AFAIK, so just replace that one with

I suppose that can probably be generalized to a media problem, if you're
using some other method.

Hope it helps!!
