I don't know but that may not work since recently when the images are not usb bootable without modification. I would guess that unetbootin (whatever that is) will try to create a usb boot the old way and fail. See 4.3.1. Preparing a USB stick using a hybrid CD or DVD image http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch04s03.html.en You shouldn't need to use special tools to build usb boot images anymore. > The first I have also burned to cd.

Try chosing a different mirror site. Or that your network is causing bit errors for some reason. (Have seen that in the long past.) Bob
