[8.050][BUG][OPEN] Install.tar missing during install

BrucekConvergent
More randomness with the 8.050 install;  I randomly get the message "Install.tar wasn't found on the installation media" ... looking at the log, the message is /install/install/install.tar: No such file or directory.

I've tried multiple CD burns (using the same burner that produces working 8.002 Disks, etc.), downloaded the ISO twice, etc.  still it's a random chance as to whether the package copy completes successfully.  I am using a USB CDROM Drive; thinking that maybe the drive was going bad, I even purchased a new, different one.  The issues persist.  Everything works great, and is predictable, with the 8.002 ISO.

    That is very interesting.  I guess you've tried the usual things, reburning the CD at slower speed, and tried a different USB CD Drive?

    The appliance I'm using is a "cousin" if you will, of the 120, chassis made by the same OEM, but it's on an Intel Atom platform (different chipsets and everything), while the 120 is on a VIA platform... don't see the commonality there, other than we're having the same problem.

    My appliances have worked well with V7.5xx and all versions of V8 up to this point.

    Hopefully someone from the beta team will be by to ask us some questions that might shed some light on the problem.
