If I understand correctly, you downloaded a single Release.gpg file and
put it inside a CD's content tree; that won't work at all, ever. Delete it
and keep just what was on the CD.
(Sidebar: No authentication keys are generated for CDs since a
self-checking CD would be security theater; apt-get on the CD can be
hacked to display a false "OK" message even if authentication failed. CDs
can/should instead be verified by external tools to match an externally
published signed checksum.)
Try booting the installer with:
install debian-installer/allow_unauthenticated=true
which should skip the entire GPG check. More info:

Because Windows doesn't support symlinks. The installer recognises
this and copes.

I'm guessing the installer has got confused here. It's looking for
things in c:/debian rather than under c:/temp/debian which you
mentioned earlier...?

I think there is a parameter in the parmfile to ignore the signature
verification but it becomes very tedious...
If you're doing ftp to a Windows server (*shudder*), then you've quite
possibly just corrupted all the line endings. You'll need to make sure
you download in BINARY format to stop this happening.
