If you have defective CD's, there is no way to know what is bad on the CD.

Best thing is to download the ISO image again, check the md5sum, burn a new copy, slowly, and try again.

Most of these problems are the result of errors when downloading, and burning too fast, with a system too busy on poor media.

if you know what packages it cant install you can alway choose not to install them during the os installation and then install them later.
