I'll try re-burning, but I hate to have to re-download the ISO files.  Was wondering if it matters that I've tried re-writing to this single CD disc many times before (to try to burn this image).  Could that be a problem?  Should I use a fresh disc?

You can check your downloaded ISO image by checking its md5sum. If that's 
right, there's no point redownloading the ISO. Just try reburning the CD at 
the slowest possible speed your writer can manage.
