You don't say anything about how you made the CD. Did you follow the instructtions in the downloading faq (reached by the documentation link at the top of this page) and burn it as an image, and at a slow speed like 4x? If you downloaded from a mirror did you check the md5 sum? (This is very important, don't skip over it just because you don't recognize what md5 means.) My bet is that you just have one big iso file sitting on that CD, but people have found any number of ways to burn the ISO file incorrectly.
