Hi,
I just spent hours downloading both the 32 and 64 bit versions of mageia 2. Both come up with near identical errors when first booted from the DVD.
Both give the error message:

EDD: Error Reading Sector
No Default or UI Configuration Directive Found.
Boot:

To rule out a defective DVD, I burnt new ones... Same errors both times.

Somewhat annoying after such large files and so long to download!

Regards
Stevie

A few questions:
  • Did you check the md5sums of the downloaded files matched the md5sums shown when you followed the download link?
  • What software did you use to burn the DVD?
  • Did you choose the option to burn a raw ISO image?
  • If you open the DVD in the system you used to burn it, what files are listed in the top level directory?
