I had the same problem; here's a link to a good discussion about it.

I burnt the DVD image to a DVD-RW on a external USB DVD writer. Now when I tried to install it that way, the installer loaded up fine, the DVD disc check passed, but the installer comes up with that software package error "No catalog found, blah blah blah". However, when I put the DVD into my IDE drive and tried installing, I was able to read all the packages and install.
Note that Neo's tip (in the link above) on aborting the installer and restarting it did not work for me (when using the USB drive).
