install failed

Not really. I just noticed the word "mirror" and thought it might mean the 
Ubuntu repositories (where software comes from). I don't recall any such 
updating in my recent install, but then my network connection is a monster to 
setup and so gets done manually afterwards.

A few things - Check the md5sum of the iso you are using; to make sure the 
disk is not bad. Next time you try, make notes of the steps and the exact 
error messages/ complaints / hangs.

Post here again, I'm sure we'll be able to help you out.
